Iphone problems

The joy's of parenthood. Started when Nate went to unplug his itouch as it was charging, he knocked my iphone to the ground and cracked the glass. Still usable, but difficult and not very safe. Apple could fix it for $200, or I could get a replacement new version for $400. Found a guy on Criagslist that replaces the glass for $75, and also a store here in Roseville that would do it for $100. Maria decided to save some $ and take it to the guy in Natomas. He didn't have any glass in stock, so we had to wait another day. When he was replacing the glass, he broke the home buttong and it wouldn't work. Had to turn the thing off before I could switch applications. He offered to fix it for free, but it would be a few days before he could get the part.

I fionally got it back on Monday, but the button is a little crooked and doesn't feel quite right. I can live with it. However, now I seme to be having other problems. The darn thing won't sync with itunes. and I've tried all sorts of things trying to get it to work. Spent the last 3 days doing various things with it, rebooting, reformatting, reinstalling. Even tried jailbreaking and unlocking it. Went through problems ranging from no cell service, to not recognized by the PC. Sometimes I really hate technology.

Looks like I finally have everything restored on it, but still can't get it to connect to itunes. I guess I just get the music/photos/videos I already got loaded on it. Hopefully it'll last awhile longer, at least another year until the new version comes out.

So I took it to the pool tonight, to watch Nate and his swim lessons. Darn thing as soon asI got Nate into the water wouldn't do anything but the traditional endless reboot loop. It felt like the thing was getting hot and the car said it was 108 outside. So after the swim lesson, I got back in the car, docked the iphone and blasted the A/C right on the phone, sure enough it seemed to work fine. Came home, synced it no problem. I think something's going on where it won't wiork in the heat. I have it sitting on an ice pack now and I'm able to update it to 3.0.1 software.

Now I just need to figure out what to do with a phone that sensitive to heat in Sac in summer.
