On Monday I wrote about how my iPhone broke and needed to be sent to Apple for repair. I mentioned that Apple said I would receive my iPhone on Wednesday or Thursday. Apple lied…but not how you may think. You see, they were correct about the Wednesday or Thursday part, as I did get mail from Apple Thursday evening. Where they were wrong, however, is that I didn’t get my iPhone, at least not the one that was sent to them.

As it turns out, the ear piece malfunction with my iPhone was a real issue that Apple didn’t know how to fix, so they just opted to send me a brand new one in return. Not too shabby a deal if you ask me. Here are some pictures from the iPhone replacement unboxing:

1) Package from Apple

2) Instructions for iPhone SIM Card removal

3) AppleCare iPhone Service Agreement

4) Box to send loaner iPhone back and box containing new iPhone

5) Brand new iPhone…ta-da!

And for those of you keeping score at home, yes, I currently have two iPhones. Look how pretty they are:

Unfortunately this double-iPhone-fisting scenario won’t last for long, as good ‘ole Steve and the rest of the Cupertino crew would like to have their loaner back, lest my credit card get charged $600. No thanks.

For those who still do not have an iPhone and may be upset with me for having two, I won’t mention any names, allow me to offer up some LOLCAT iPhone humor to brighten up your day a bit…
