Apple iPhone 2.0 8GB For Sale (Take Two)

The first auction didn’t go so well. The first buyer didn’t respond to any of my emails and when I tried to call him I got a message saying that the subscriber wasn’t recieving any calls. So let’s try again!

If you are interested in checking out the actual eBay auction, feel free!

On Tuesday morning (July 22, 2008) I went to my local Apple store to see if they could fix or replace my first generation iPhone due to some camera issues I was having. I went online and set up a Genius Bar appointment for 10:20 a.m. After waiting for about 20 minutes it was my turn to be serviced.

The guy I was working with took my phone, took a picture, and then said he needed to step into the back to check things out. He came out a few minutes later and said that he had never seen this problem before. The internal circuit board that held the camera was loose causing the lens to wobble which, in turn, caused the images to lack focus.

They ended up replacing it with a brand new iPhone. This was good news and exactly what I was hoping would happen. I went into the store planning to sell my iPhone on eBay and use the proceeds to purchase two iPhone 3G’s so that both Shari and I could have one.

I’ll give more details in a follow up post in a few days, but for now I wanted to post a link to an eBay Auction for my first gen iPhone. I am also using this post as an excuse to get some high resolution photos into the hands of those who are interested in purchasing the iPhone as the resolution of the photos on eBay is terrible.

Happy Bidding!

I’ve had an iPhone for six months now. Not once have I regretted that purchase. Until now. It’s the latest upgrade to the OS. It’s killing me how useful this thing has become - and how hard it is to put it down. That’s the problem. My advice? Don’t buy an iPhone - they are far to useful.
