An iPhone on fire, or almost

By crispin. Original by Lionel - 05/03/2009 07:36:12 CET - Category: iPhone
Here the photograph that starts to make the rounds on the Web.

The story of this iPhone is given on a blog. Its owner connected to his computer and found it like this 3 hours later.
He shouts about a major issue, but this is in fact extremely rare since he has not succeeded in finding another similar case in the tens of millions of the iPhone sold.
Being given the place where the plastic melted, we wonder whether something may have been in the connector to make the short-circuit and thus generating heat and burning the plastic.

A little reminder concerning the new Airport and Time Capsule units

By crispin. Original by Lionel - 05/03/2009 07:27:44 CET - Category: Network
Knowing that Apple has no chance has to remove the old Airport Extreme N and Time Capsule from the sales outlets and that thing that differentiate the old from the new are in tiny characters on the boxes, it would be easy for you to make an error and to find yourself with a product from the old range. To avoid this vexation, you will have to look at the serial number which is on the lower part of the boxes. Here those of the new products:
Airport Extreme n: MB763Z/A
Time Capsule 500 Go: MB764Z/A
Time Capsule 1To: MB765Z/A
The old units have the following numbers
Airport Extreme n: MA073ZA
Time Capsule 500 Go: MB276Z/A
Time Capsule 1To: MB277Z/A
PS, if you buy these products in other countries, only the end of the reference changes, for example LL/A for the United States instead of Z/A for France.
