Damn! Do you see how I made that title rhyme? I have to be honest. My name is Ms. Very Stupid and I’m a PC, but Apple has me in their grip right now and I don’t know how to escape. I was pissed when a close friend bought me an iPhone and switched my cell phone service to the iPhone without me knowing. I never wanted an iPhone. I talked about it here to get it off of my chest…..and so I didn’t hit the person who did it. Now I can honestly say that I was wrong. The iPhone appeals to the software developer in me. There are so many apps for so many really useful things that I feel like a kid in a candy store. I’m in love with the phone now and I wouldn’t give it back if someone paid me to take my old pda back. That’s why I nearly lost my mind when the screen suddenly went black and wouldn’t come back on. I tried plugging the darn thing into the car, into a regular socket and into my computer. Still nothing but a black screen. I took deep breaths and clicked my heels three times and still nothing but a blank screen. I through the phone on the floor (in its protective case of course) and stomped around like a child and still nothing but a black blank screen.

Panic! Terror! I can’t get to the Apple store at 2am in the morning! What am I going to do????? Well I got on the Internet and discovered the answer to cure my Apple iPhone 3G blank screen blues.

All you do is hold down the little square button the front AND hold down the button on the top of the phone until the phone resets itself. Problem solved! What a quirky thing! I was ready to throw that phone into the toilet. Fortunately for me, I controlled myself and used my brain power instead of my muscles.

This problem was very, very stupid!
