I've been accused of being an Apple hater more than a few times so here's your grain of salt.
That Apple would release a product with a flaw like that doesn't surprise me at all. The sad thing is that people will still buy it knowing full well that they're going to have this problem. -----Original Message----- From: Cameron Childress [mailto:[email protected]] Sent: Thursday, June 24, 2010 5:37 PM To: cf-community Subject: SERIOUS iPhone 4 Hardware Flaw http://www.pcmag.com/article2/0,2817,2365650,00.asp The new iPhone's antenna is a strip of metal that goes around the entire exterior of the case. This means it gets great reception... till you hold in your hand. The second you hold it in your hand your reception starts steadily dropping because your body grounds the antenna. Then your call goes "poof". You can fix this flaw pretty easily by buying a case for the phone. But seriously? It's called a "handheld device" for reason. How did this design flaw make it all the way through production? I saw this in person today as someone picked up a phone that had 5 full bars and the phone immediately started losing bars. It got to two bars before he set it back down again - 5 full bars came back immediately. Really? Really? I mean REALLY?!?!?!?!?!? Apple has to be kidding about this.... Seriously?!?!?!? I am baffled. -Cameron ... ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~| Order the Adobe Coldfusion Anthology now! http://www.amazon.com/Adobe-Coldfusion-Anthology-Michael-Dinowitz/dp/1430272155/?tag=houseoffusion Archive: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/message.cfm/messageid:321983 Subscription: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/subscribe.cfm Unsubscribe: http://www.houseoffusion.com/groups/cf-community/unsubscribe.cfm
