Many of you are just hateful.
People make mistakes all the time. Its very easy to misread, and the bulk of the listing is set up to make you think you are getting an iPhone.
There is only one purpose to this auction....to defraud. I am 100% confident that the buyer will not have to complete the purchase. 100%!
Now, as to action against the seller....in my experience with eBay...none will be taken.
Paypal, well they might have a say if the buyer actually pays...otherwise they are not involved.
The purpose of this thread is to alert others.

Does anybody know of a piece of music i could use for my slideshow?
The sideshow contains picture of a camping trip in the summer holidays.
Thanks people.
For me, Holiday Road from National Lampoon's Vacation is the quintessential road trip song, but I don't know if that works for your slides.

Nobody really answered my question. I hate to repost it again just trying to find an answer. I tried to call the at&t rep and they don't know what going on.
I had iPhone 3GS 32GB had it about almost a year. They let me do an early upgrade for the new iPhone 4 in June when it came out for the price of $299 with a two year agreement.
The question I have is let just say the new iPhone 5 comes out with the same price point let say June release like last year. By this new $50 thing does that mean I pay for $549 price point or can I just pay the $299 plus the two year agreement like I did last year?
Thanks guys

To recap all the comments above...
Pretty muc everyone who actually had to *use* Notes for work hates it.
The only people who seem to be praising it are the ones who are paid to maintain it. Notice how the Notes fanbois refer to it as a "product", "platform", "solution", etc - and yet provide not a single example where the features of the client itself would make the user more happy and productive.
Yes, I said the word: User!
It's the users that matter most.
And Notes client makes any user miserable.
It is slow, it uses non-standard interface elements, and it has a really steep learning curve (even for the 'engineer' types). I am not a big fan of Outlook, but even Outlook is light years ahead of Notes.
As for the Domino server itself... That thing is just as bad as the client.
Its raison d'etre seems to be simplification of development process.
And it might have made (some limited) sense in 1995.
Not anymore.
Everything, and I mean everything, that you can do with Domino, you can do with Ruby, PHP/MySQL/PostgreSQL, WebObjects, or Java.
You can do it in less time, using highly visual dev environments. You can also easily collaborate on the development process, and systematically create concise documentation. The finished product will run fast and solid, and it won't depend on proprietary (terrible) client software. You will just need a web browser.
Domino, on the other hand, is pure garbage. I remember working in a 20 person company back in '00 where we had a Domino server running on a dual 500MHz PIII server with 2 gigs of RAM - very expensive at the time. It was very hard on the poor machine. It was choking. And the only three things the server was used for were email, very basic scheduling, and a billable hour tracking app. Not that that server is any speed demon by modern standards... But a non-Domino system having the same functionality would not have created any measurable load on the server at all with only 20 users. Did I also mention the server was less than stable? And I still remember how SP6 for NT completely brought the damn thing down... Ouch.

Because I was aiming that at people who were throwing a hissy fit and going to Verizon. So your point had nothing to do with mine!! I wasn't addressing everyone upset with the price increase. ANd yes, I do think going to some one who will end up being worse than the company you are pissed at in the regards of what you are pissed at as throwing a hissy fit! It would be one thing if you were changing and Verizon cost more but you were pissed at AT&T cause you hated their customer service. But being pissed cause they made a deal they had less of a deal and going to a place that doesn't even offer that deal in the first place? I call that throwing a hissy fit and making no sense.
Yes, it had a lot to do with them. Many who are leaving have a legitimate gripe with AT&T and if they want to take their business elsewhere b/c a purely financial decision by AT&T, so be it. Even if the finances may not add up at first. Taking your business elsewhere IS what many want to do.
As I said above, if AT&T cancelled my unlimited and I was left with 2 similar choices (between AT&T & Verizon) BUT would need to spend extra with Verizon due to swithcing...I would do it in a heartbeat even with it not making much financial sense at the time.
So yes, that was directly at what you were saying.
Oh, cost of running business? Cost of upkeep of equipment, cost of upkeep of building and building rent. Cost of wages because as prices go up everywhere cost of living goes up therefore you end up giving people a pay reduction if you don't reflect cost of living increases in wage increases? Not everything is tied down to just the prices of the phones (after all, it's not just the iphone that is increasing in price). And their cost of running a business will reflect in their prices. They aren't a charity and if their costs increase, they will reflect that in prices to the extent that they can do it without losing too much revenue (they do keep in mind what will keep them the most profit and that does include losing business).
Ah ok, so you have nothing. Just the same old line used by AT&T whenever they raise the price
Gotcha
The fact that you wrote the "Everyone wants money" line shows me how far over your head my point went.

There is a similar case in which a teen brought her 7 year old sister to an apartment where she was gang-raped for money. The case is falling apart due to lack of evidence. They probably all wore rubbers.
A girl pimped her 7 year old sister. Animals don't do stuff like this.
TRENTON � City police have charged a 15-year-old girl as an accomplice to the gang rape of her 7-year-old sister.
You, sir, owe an apology to animals. The people who did this to that 7-y-o are sub-animals, and my stomach literally turned at the thought of the suffering that little girl endured.
Regarding the 11-y-o, I read about this on another blog, and everyone there were uniformly disgusted by this comment. Children cannot give consent, and it doesn't matter if she was "asking" for it either verbally, or based on the way that she was dressed. She cannot legally give consent to sexual relations, so she was raped! There is no ambiguity, and I am surprised this cretin was able to dig to the bottom of the sewer to come up with one.

Ehh... The Atari Flashback 2 (http://www.amazon.com/gp/redirect.html?ie=UTF8&location=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.amazon.com%2FAtari-Flashback-2-Plug-Play%2Fdp%2FB00093DHIK&tag=cavesofnarshe-20&linkCode=ur2&camp=1789&creative=9325) is probably a better solution, especially for those of us who still have standard definition TVs. It comes with about 20 games built in and uses real, miniaturized Atari hardware to the point where you can even modify it to accept old cartridges. (http://www.atarimuseum.com/fb2hacks/) The PCB even has a little space on it that shows where to put the reader.
If I buy the game pack, can I legally burn ROMs for my 2600?
That is a good question. I haven't thought this through as much as the other way around. If you don't have to circumvent any digital restrictions management to place you in violation of the D.M.C.A, I know people can legally create one personal archival copy from any copies of software programs they legally own. (http://www.copyright.gov/help/faq/faq-digital.html) The outcome of several carious cases such as Sony vs. Connectix (http://digital-law-online.info/cases/53PQ2D1705.htm) show that it is quite possible to juxtapose a legally entitled copy onto another platform. It is for these reasons that I believe emulation of Atari 2600 games on a modern P.C. would be legal, if there was only a cartridge reader to take advantage of First Sale Doctrine.
There are too many variables for me to be absolutely certain about the other way around though, since I'm not aware of many precedents going in that direction. There are questions to be raised as to whether you can legally unbundle the ROM files from the App in question though. Only the copyright holder has the right to create a derivative work out of their software so if they're merely considered portions of the Atari's Greatest Hits, you might be out of luck since I doubt your Atari can read iO.S. Apps.
However it could theoretically be considered the same if it's argued that the ROM files constitute computer programs in and of themselves, entitling you to archive them individually. Pendent on how the App works it may also be argued that a .app file on your computer is merely a directory as is any folder or mounted disc volume allowing you to unbundle them and drop the unnecessary bagage, say if you have raw access to a subdirectory of raw ROMfiles. As mentioned above though, if DRM effectively prevents this access or if the ROMfiles are a directly stored as part of the iOS App's executable I doubt much could be done. There might be other unexpected avenues of finding fair use in this case, like how the Betamax Case assumes there was an invitation to use the content in a certain way but I'm hesitant to weigh in on that without prior precedent just due to how hazily Fair Use is applied within the context of the law.
I'm not sure if I can get back to you in a timely manner if ever but now you've piqued my curiosity so it's possible I'll be looking into this in the future...

Hi. Thanks yet again for all the advice. I've learned more about pricing from this thread the last 2 days, than I did all my years at school. If I can be a pig and ask for a little more advice. I'd like to show an example of what I've been doing for a client who owns a music studio/music school. They have me design cd packaging for their artists, that they then send to Oasis for print. The one on the right has already gone to print and the artist was very happy with the end result. The one on the left is near finished. I'm ashamed to say I charged the same low hourly figure for this work as well. What do you think this kind of work is worth; if I may ask? Thanks :)
The blue lettering is way too strong and doesn't match the constipated look of the artist. I expect the constipated look is actually supposed to be serious grandpa gangster, but the fonts are way too blunt in form and color and make his awkward portrait look that much more, well, awkward, because they don't provide any atmosphere. Also, if your crop marks are correct, the inside edge of the song roster on the back is in serious risk of falling into the fold, and the gray spine isn't wide enough.
The sunset-fields cover looks overly flat and has no dynamism despite the calligraphic title and fantasy world circle. The pieces on the cover look like oil and water - standing apart, not mixing, not supporting one another.

Exactly!
Heck I have said some crap to good friends of mine on the ice and they have said some crap to me. Even at my level of play there's emotion that sometimes gets the better of us.
That's funny, because the ice team I started playing with (all straight guys except for me) recently kicked a guy off the team for using the F word repeatedly, and that was before I joined. I don't feel the need to use slurs when I play, and neither do they. They think it's cheap, immature and they won't tolerate it.
