Enticed bythose cunning ads , Alabama resident Jessica Smith rush out to get one profligate than the iPhone 3 G ’s Google Maps could say her where to go . After a calendar month of it being slower than she expect , only able-bodied to touch on 3 gram 25 percentage of the time and an “ inordinate amount of dropped calls,”Ars says thatyesterday she slap Apple with a class - activity lawsuit over the “ defective iPhone 3G. ” While the idea of someone in Alabama using an iPhone might take a second or sixty to process , she in reality dwell in Birmingham , one of the province ’s few bastions of civilization , which AT&T has blanket with solid 3 G insurance coverage ( though congestion is always a possible return ) . Given the huge amount of noise about theproblemswith the phone ’s 3G - and even Apple ’s tacit price of admission of the issuewith the 2.0.2 update - she estimates in the suit that the class cross “ perhaps tens of thousands ” of people . The actual base of the suit is that Apple broke its warranty that it would “ do adequately ” on 3G. She ’s necessitate for Apple to be forced to repair or replace all “ bad iPhone 3 G ” whole , plus impairment , sake on “ pecuniary relief ” and attorney ’s fee . The suit has n’t really been made category action yet , but if it does , then this could get interesting . If nothing else , we might learn from the suit where on the button the speech sound ’s problem lie , and that might be worth the ride , even if it aim a long time to get there . [ Ars Technica ]
