…so don’t be offended if I don’t answer your calls or texts right away. And would it be mein iphone or meine? I think “mein” sounds good to me. I haven’t studied German in several years 
This is the second time I’ve had this problem. Every now and then, usually when I really need to use it, the phone decides to go all matrixy on me and blink on and off with strange white lines and a white screen. It happened with my last iphone 3G, but at that point I was under warranty and they replaced it for free. So now I have an almost new phone (less than a year old), but it isn’t covered because my warranty began when I purchased my first phone three years ago. Boo apple. The best they could do was offer to sell me a new one for $299, which doesn’t sound like such a good deal when everyone knows the 4th gen iphone is probably only a month or two a way.
So for now I’ll deal with a phone that only works half the time. It actually does pretty well if i keep it permanently plugged in. Maybe I’ll just pretend it’s an old school land line phone. When was the last time I used one of those? Oh technology–we love it, but we hate it…
