< My experience (YMMV!) with AppleCare has always been stellar. In my experience AppleCare repairs are stellar because they're never actually repairs. I've never once had them repair a phone/laptop/etc. Every single time they're like here's a new/refurb instance of the same phone(not that I'm complaining!). I'm hoping they're eventually refurbing the old one and reselling it, but I suspect they're often just tossed(ahem "recycled").
