There is nothing more frustrating as a consumer than being told what you are experiencing and describing is not happening or isn't real.  Many early iPhone 3G adopters have been reporting terrible White Apple of Death screens as the iPhone 3G completely locks up and becomes unresponsive and we feel brushed away by Apple as delusional wackos in need of censoring.  We are upset and we are angry and we're not going to take it anymore!
