Briefly: iPhone horror story; Woz dating
In brief: An iPhone owner who was billed nearly $5,000 in data roaming charges is telling the tale online, Apple co-founder Steve 'Woz' Wozniak is reportedly dating comedian Kathy Griffin, AT&T has announced the iPhone is in stock at all of its U.S. stores, and GizMac today began its "Replace Your Case" trade-in promo. An iPhone owner who received a bill from AT&T for more than $5,000 says he apparently racked up the charges by using the carrier's EDGE network internationally. AT&T charged the customer $0.2 cents per kilobyte of data transferred while overseas, amounting to a total cost of $4,953.37. The shocked customer notes that surfing to a 1,000KB Web page cost him a whopping $20.
Woz dating Kathy Griffin?
Apple co-founder Steve Wozniak is allegedly dating comedian Kathy Griffin, according to one report. The engineer met the comic star after watching her stand-up show in July. Griffin is divorced, while Woz has three children and has been married three times prior. Griffin is well known for dating celebrities to obtain publicity, however, and announced such intentions earlier this year.
