Hopefully they are truly isolated and not indicative of a larger problem. |
I'm going to have to go with the wait and see approach.
It's pretty easy to sort through FUD and determine who is really telling the truth. Given the high profile nature of the release and this new fangled thing called social media, word gets around pretty quickly among trusted circles.
It's ridiculous to think that there are no problems; every piece of hardware has a rate of failure, however small. Of course it still boggles my mind that any hardware that's supposedly tested at the factory before being boxed and shipped could arrive DOA, assuming no damage in transit.
