iFail 3G #3 here I come…

Well lets say that at least my trip to Portland wasn’t uber boring. As much as I tend to hate all things Apple (ironic given I own an iPhone, iPod and MacBook Pro… but that’s another story all together), I gotta say their customer service is great and they honored the warranty on their iPhone.
However this makes it my third iFail… err.. iPhone. The first had a wonderful FAIL of it’s own, again, another story. Now I’m left “customizing” this current iPhone. Wonderful.
And now to the point… at least I had a blast in Portland. It’s 11:21pm and I just got home. Wewt!
Attempt to restore on the MacBook…

… but in the end… FAIL. Spent over an hour on the phone with AppleCare to come up to the same results… I have a lovely iPaperweight. Something even Tim pretty much chuckled at. I mean what more can I say? I spent that time on the phone doing the same restores I had just previously attempted… but now it encompassed two machines with the same results… FAIL.
So now I have an appointment in Portland at the Apple Store to deal with this at the “Genius Bar”… yay. I get to try the restore one more time on my MacBook Pro at home… probably to watch it fail (I mean statistically if it’s failed 100% of the time I attempted the restore on two different PC’s, what’s the likelihood it will be successful on the Mack?).
Does anybody notice the PATTERN HERE? Maybe I should bring my camcorder with me to the Apple Store…
