Electronically Disappointed

First I found out today that I'm not getting my iPhone tomorrow, as promised. I don't even know when I will get it -- I might have to wait until the end of the month. I feel like a little boy who's been told on Christmas Eve that Santa is going to be two weeks late. Verizon obviously didn't order enough phones from Apple.

Then tonight I took some of my radio control toys out of their boxes and found leaking batteries in two of the transmitters. The batteries were supposed to be good until March 2013. Costco is going to hear about this.

You need to view the large version to appreciate how bad the damage is.
