The fact that there's refurbs says a lot of how many issues it has and that there's actually a buyer's remorse. It's really not a deal when you look at a new iphone comes with a 1yr and this only has 3 months of warranty. No one will insure a refurb regardless. My sister's refurb had issues with the Home button not responding so I wouldn't take a chance on a deal that is only saving you $100. Obviously no one at ATT had to fix an iPhone that's out-of-warranty. It's expensive as hell.
I am an Adroid user and not buying a refurb iPhone for $99. I'm switching because I can get better 3G coverage, carry-over minutes and unlimited texting on a family plan for $5 a month shared. T-Mo doesn't get 3G reception here at my work building and it's driving me nuts.
