[QUOTE="MacInWin, post: 1780687, member: 396914"] Patrick, I neve saw where they denied doing it. All I had heard was that they didn't offer comment until today. Hence, my reaction. But if they originally denied any such practice, then that was deceptive. Silence is just silence. I've been thinking about what people do with the phone and I can't think of anything other than gaming that would drive the CPU to peaks like that for more than a few seconds. And the iPhone is not particularly good at gaming. So to me, it's all a tempest in a teapot. But some people get all bent out of shape over such things. For me, life is to short. The practical impact is basically zero, so it's not worth getting worked up about it. [/QUOTE]
