            I'm not an Apple fan (cool phone, though, too bad about the signal and some specs) but look at it like this: cell phone operators are required by law to keep your text messages and call logs for at least 6 months. And your location (or: what base stations you were using, not GPS-accurate but still it's a location) for five years.

                          like hell they will. i bet they push an "image" to your phone and said it fixed, but reality they try to hide it better.
