no but they were talking about that at the front of the line. I was very nervous all day Friday since I didn't have a case on it. I was only pulling it out if I wasn't standing over concrete :-)
Once I got a case on it on Saturday morning it was much easier to hold and I was a lot less worried but it is still a very large phone.
I am sure there are going to be times I wish it was smaller but overall I like it.

The apps need to get updated for it and there is some bugginess when you switch to landscape sometimes but I bet it is all software related and not hardware.
When I read this, I feel bad for the developer or team of developers etc that allowed this update to go through
"Apple shares fell as much as nearly 4 percent to $97.72 in early trading on Thursday, to be the biggest drag on the Nasdaq Composite Index, At that price, the stock had lost all its gains since the launch of the latest iPhones and the company's market value declined by $24 billion."

Yeah...I wasn't too happy. as a shareholder but in the end it really wasn't a huge deal...I think they said it impacted 40K out of 10 million or something like that. .4%???
The media has taken that and the bendable phone and ran with it. Both are reasonable concerns but in general the launch of this phone has been better so far than any other design change they have done, I think. The iphone 4 and iOS 7 had many more issues, I think.
Oh well. Hopefully the stock rebounds in Oct through the rest of the year because I would like to sell some and get some BABA before it gets too expensive.
