so my cousin decides to go check out the iphone on sat while he waits for his in the mail. as he's in the apple store he decides to give me a call from the store, lo and behold it worked and i talked to him for 20 sec before i hung up on him. next thing i know i start receiving random texts from the same number which i dont recognize till it hits me....ITS THE IPHONE MY COUSIN CALLED ME FROM!!! i got about 20 texts and phone calls in the following 3 hrs. i havent received any calls or texts today so im hoping its wiped off the phone. pretty weird...most notable texts were as follows:
"im hungry, i need a twinkie"
"did you see this...IPHRONE!"
"hey baby"
"lakers suck"
"hey bill...you know youre drooling"

You mean the Apple Store is letting people use activated iPhones and allowing them to make calls?

Well, considering you can't use an iPhone without activating it?
yes.

Back when the iSight came out someone on this forum asked anyone if they had one they could use to test. I provided my iChat account and they tested it. They forgot to take my account off the iChat on the CompUSA computer. I kept getting random people wanting to video chat with me, until I talked someone through deleting my account off the computer.

I'm guessing the iPhones get refreshed to new (software wise) every day, so you probably don't have a whole lot to worry about now.

I heard this happening to a lot of people. Pretty funny, since it didn't happen to me. Make sure you thank your buddy.
On that note, if you want to annoy someone you know, go ahead and give em a call from an Apple Store iPhone. Even if its only for a day, its worth a chuckle.
