The power/lock button on my Apple iPhone 4 is not broken and I cannot power the device on or off. I’ve tried synching it too but it won’t wake up. The button feel flimsy, as if the spring action below the button malfunctioned. I’m going to cross my fingers and carry it to the local AT&T store. I’m afraid that they’re going to try to sell me a new phone though. If you’ve encountered the same issue and know how to repair iPhone 4 buttons, please let me know. Thanks!

Can anyone tell me any design flaws of Zeppelin airships?
Question by El Matador: Can anyone tell me any design flaws of Zeppelin airships?
My brother and I are attempting to design a very special class of Zeppelin, but I don’t want to give away too many details out of fear of someone ripping us off. However, before we can do anything, we need to try to perfect the design of the Zeppelin itself and It’s rather difficult to find anything online. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Is there a class action lawsuit against Chrystler because of their cars’ theft design flaws?
Question by Steve J: Is there a class action lawsuit against Chrystler because of their cars’ theft design flaws?
My car has been stolen twice. They get in with a screw driver, break the PLASTIC steering column, and drive away using a stick. Every CHRYSTLER has this flaw. Even the new ‘300’s. they have done nothing to fix this problem. My friend works with troubled youth and he even over heard them talking about how they can drive away with a chrystler with only a stick. these kids aren’t even 16 yet. this is a serious design flaw that they still haven’t corrected.
Best answer:
Answer by Perry F
Did Honda ever correct their flaws, like starting one up with a filed down Chrysler key, or the ease of pulling back on the frame less window, NO
What about the early GM column that can be broken apart and started w/ a screwdriver, NO
Sorry I think you can’t fault a manufacturer for not designing a car that cannot be stolen 100% of the time.
BTW I understand that even if you can get the steering wheel unlocked, if the transmitter is not active then the theft module will not allow the engine to stay running, so I think your off on this one.
