2. Battery wears out very fast, and to replace it you must send the entire phone to apple and wait 2 weeks before they send it back to you. In the mobile business world thats ridiculous, you cannot be without a phone for 2 weeks. Most companies would be out of business before then.

I would pass.
Yes, I have stumbled into many threads at other sites. A lot of people have been thinking of returning their iPhone. Not sure if they are able to do that tho.
