Dear Steve Jobs,

Can you please send me a new iPhone?

As a young entrepreneur in the technology field I am sure you can remember when you busted a piece of hardware by accident and how much you would have loved the help in getting that repaired.

Well I must say my extremely durable iPhone failed yesterday. I have had this thing for almost a year now and it has survived everything up until today. I have dropped this thing on concrete, out of a moving car, on the deck of a sport fisher out at sea, I have sat on this thing at least a dozen times, it has been spilled on, the list goes on…. yet it has survived everything. I had actually gotten to a point when I dropped it and everyone around me held their breath in aww….I would casually just pick it up and put it back in my pocket like nothing was wrong…as I knew this sucker was indestructible.

Well I can attest that the iPhone is extreme durable, I can also attest that the iPhone CAN NOT survive the belly flop.

Yesterday at a BBQ as I was chatting on my iPhone and when I was finished I went to slip it in my jeans pocket…but I missed (those damn Dark & Stormies) and the phone once again speeded to the ground and as always everyone was in awwwww.

As always, the iPhone landed face down. I left it there for a minute while everyone watched and some of my friends chuckled saying, ‘that thing is dead’.

I noted, “no way”, and offered to take bets. I figured if I could make a few hundred bucks here it would offset the cost on when I actually did someday break this indestructible iPhone.

So the pot got up to $250 bucks….and a kind girl friend of mine went to pick up the phone. I could see it on her face when she lifted it off the ground. Bammmm shattered. My baby was spider webbed. Now am I not only out an iPhone, I am in the hole for $250! Errr…

Noted by a good friend of mine – “The iPhone can not survive the belly flop!”

Believe it or not, this thing still works quite well, in fact, perfectly….however it is quite embarrassing to pull it out in front of clients.

Just so you know, the iPhone was big part of my business here in Boston. I snapped photos with it everyday and used these photos to promote luxury condos here on the blog. You can search the blog for “iphone” as we had tagged every photo taken from our trust iPhone.

So Mr. Jobs, any chance you can help out a young, starving entrepreneur who drives his entire web-based business off MAC hardware? ☺

Or maybe….

Barter Deal: To keep this short, we are a new web-based real estate brokerage who operates in the specific niche of new condominiums in urban metros across the U.S. (Coming to San Francisco soon…)

You can check out our site here. We operate on a flat fee business model so we don’t get compensated on a commission or a percentage of what you spend. Hey, we are a buyers brokerage, who exclusively represents buyers…why should we be compensated more if you spend more? Anyway, Steve, lets say you want to buy a new condo out here in Boston, next to your new baby on Boylston street. Just for ballpark #’s, you spend $3M as your little in town Boston pied-de-terre. Well, on this deal, I will represent you, get you the best darn price and cut you a check for all of my commission minus my $5,000 flat fee which would net you $85,000 cash back at closing.

Sound like a deal?

I look forward to your response. Until then, I will continue searching the blog-o-sphere for repair advise for the iPhone, here, here, here & here.

Sincerely,

Tony Longo

P.S. - We would be happy to do some Q&A for you on your GPS module with Skyhook Wireless as they are our neighbors here in the Fort Point Channel! Thanks Steve!
