I have been reading the threads regarding the GPS, Battery and email issues and some seem to have it, others seem to not. So I was wondering if maybe a certain group of phones made it out while the QC guy was out to lunch. This exact same thing happened in 2007 when the iPhone was launched. It was determined that the line of units that came from a certain site was causing all of the issues. They actually narrowed it down to the serial numbers. If you had an iPhone within that string of serial numbers, you simply went to an Apple Store and swaped it out. So I was thinking maybe we can do some exploration using the Captivate's Manufactored Date (or DOB). I received mine when I registered my Captivate on the Samsung web page here is the link:

Product Registration SAMSUNG

My Captivate was born on 07/07/2010! A brand new baby boy! So if you haven't registered yet, maybe you may. When you input your serial number, the DOB will pop-up on the screen directly below the serial number field.

So lets publish our Captivate's DOB, all, chime in please! :rolleyes:
