            They haven't listed the revenue due to one of their most important activities, viz. litigation procedures.

When visited the service center they said it is common problem, they are receiving 2-3 complaints every day. The guy at the service center reinstalled OS and said problem will be resolved. Now it is getting hot for every 10 minutes of usage.

              Anybody having same type of problem? Please help me in resolving the issue.

                    some people on here saying apple stuff are over priced the reason for that is the high quality products and great customer relations, they dont do like other phone makers make a lot of phone and dont support them afterwards with software updates etc how many top androids phones out there its not even on ICS yet what i notice with.android u can wait months to never for a new software update i know this am a android user myself

                      John, 25 Jul 2012Man, I like to feel pity for you but I don't, I love Apple ... moreyes, i am slave of good taste,superb design and premium materials blended for a supreme experience and i do not want to make any jailbrake from my apple world.i am an apple exclusive user because i have used many devices before and i can feel the difference. only poor frustrated people are complaining here about apple. use first for real an imac or macbook pro retina and talk your stinky bullshit after,not before you loosers!!. my status as person is defined by the products i use. mac os is the best,my 1500 euros imac is the best,iphone 4s is the best,ipad 3 have the best display. i like to be the slave of apple. i am also slave of marantz since 1978, i spent thousands of dollars on their different amplifiers,cd,deck,pick-up,bluray 3d,network players and many more since my dad bought in 1978 the first tube amplifier from marantz. i have it now in my collection and is like brand new,some collectors wanted to pay for it 3000 dolars,but i refused. quality lasts, trash is going quickly

                        it's been awarded and selected the most wanted smartphone device by a Microsoft developer panel event last month. Means Apple can only be second.LOL

                              [deleted post]Man, I like to feel pity for you but I don't, I love Apple products but I'm not gonna be a slave like that! I love to own every piece of it if it's free or I just buy what I need. I wish Apple give some sort of credentials for being such a slave.

                                Good on you Apple. Now invest that money into innovations, but not buying off patents and suing others.

                                  People buy Apple products for good reason, quality and reliability don't come free. People who are fine with paying for Apple's products don't need or want to read comment's like yours.
