This is getting ridiculous. I cant believe we are seeing this with Apple’s flagship product. If antenna or yellow spot screen discoloration issues were not enough, there are now reports of unhappy customers who have got new iPhone 4’s with flipped buttons for volume rocker. And moreover, if you press the “-“ button, it will result in increasing of the volume while pressing “+” will result in volume getting quieter.

iPhone fanatic and Mac lover !
Microsoft today inaugurated their fourth Store in Fashion Valley Mall in San Diego, California. This store is situated right next to Apple Store where there were long queues today of people who are hoping to get their hands on the newly launched iPhone 4.
iPhone 4 was originally scheduled for delivery on 24th June. Then we heard about 23rd June delivery for some of the customers who got the confirmation from AT&T in an email. And now, it looks like FedEx has already delivered some units to lucky lads who have posted first of unboxing pictures for everyone to see. Pictures after the break.
As was expected, Apple has just released iBooks app for iPhones iPod touches running the newly released iOS 4. This release basically makes iBooks a universal binary, which means that you can run the same app on both the iPhone and iPad.
It was indeed very sweet and thoughtful of Stefan Magdalinski, a guy from South Africa to come up with this great idea of wrapping an iPad in a chocolate bar, on the eve of his beloved wife's birthday. The guy in fact shot two birds with one stone. His wife is not only a chocolate lover, but also a great Apple fan too! And so he not only gave her that big 1.5 lbs chocolate bar which she loves to eat, but also Apple iPad all the way from London (iPad is not available in South Africa yet) which she always wanted.
Apple has introduced the new updated Mac mini that has been redesigned in a a big way! With a starting price of $699 for the basic model, you get 2.4GHz Core 2 Duo CPU, 2GB of RAM, and a 320GB hard drive. A big ‘Yay’ for HDMI-out port which is finally included, along with SD card reader, 802.11n wireless adaptor, a Mini Display Port jack, and the new NVIDIA GeForce 320M graphics chip.
iPhone 4 was announced at WWDC 10 by Steve Jobs in front of packed audience at Moscone Center, San Francisco. This release without a doubt is a significant jump in the iPhone line-up since its introduction back in 2007.
Safari 5 surprising didn't get any demo or mention at Jobs’ WWDC 2010 keynote but Apple PR has just released full “Press Release”, detailing the new Safari 5. This new version of Safari packs tons of new features including support for extensions, Microsoft Bing as a choice of search engine, improved HTML5 support, 30 percent performance increase over Safari 4, Safari Reader and more.
WWDC 10 is only about 12 hours away now where Apple will unveil the next iPhone and what we have now is even more pictures leaked from Korea, showing the back panel, and other parts of the white model (video here) of the next-gen iPhone. The back panel case is similar to all the previous leaks that we have seen so far. Maybe someone in China, Vietnam or Korean region have got loads of these parts and they are selling it off to make loads of money right before the official announcement by Jobs.
We have already seen iPad installed in the cars, and how airlines are thinking about adopting it as an inflight entertainment system for its passengers in the skies. And now a restaurant owner in Australia has found another use of iPad – to replace printed menus in restaurants with iPad-based interactive menu cards !
