Serious iPhone “Glitch” Exposes Cheaters

Serious iPhone “Glitch” Exposes Cheaters
Feb 19, 2010 By eChinacities.com
Korea Daily News, a South Korean news agency, reports that Apple's iPhone has sold over 300,000 handsets in South Korea, but there appears to be a serious “glitch” that could get the better of adulterers and two-timers looking to cover their tracks.

The “glitch” is actually a normal feature of the phone: unlike most mobile phones, iPhones do not allow the user to easily delete individual records of phone calls from their call log. Unable to delete records of individual calls, iPhone users looking to remove a particular call from their record have to wipe the whole call log clean.

This might seem like a trivial problem to many, but it can open a can of worms for adulterers and two-timers looking to hide their tracks. Lovers and spouses have a habit of checking each other's handsets, so if there’s a phone call you'd rather your boyfriend/girlfriend/spouse not find out about, then this “glitch” in the iPhone could potentially be your downfall.

Still, everything happens for a reason right? An iPhone user that had heard of the problem put it best: could this be a chance for you to seriously consider cleaning up your acts?
