Kevin Ho of CNET has discovered something about the iPhone that he wished he hadn’t: the Black Screen of Death. Windows devices show the famous BSOD during a system failure. Hated throughout the world, Apple will need to rethink the Black SOD concept and maybe replace it with White or some other color or color scheme.
Kevin describes the iPhone BSOD as such:
Everything stops working. The time bar at top is there, but the rest of the screen is black. No touching. No prodding of the home key. No pressing of the upper right key will get the thing working again.
He’s also found another blogger with the same experience.
The quick and easy solution after each BSOD episode is to unlock the iPhone. It works, but the system, at least in Kevin’s iPhone, has been unstable ever since, requiring the same treatment every now and then.
