By "extreme cases" are you perhaps referring to emergency situations where life or death or serious injury or even just a great inconvenience may be the outcome? Is this not what many users of cell phones obtain them for? Being able to function as well as is possible in such a scenario would seem to be a no-brainer to me, and not something to be scoffed at simply because it is not the norm. I have not insisted anything since the inception of any aspect of this discussion. Now, that being said, and you may peruse previous posts if you want to try to prove me wrong on the above, what would cause the "rest of us" to suffer had Apple provided some shielding for that antenna, and I am not talking about a $30 add-on accessory? It seems to me as though every user of this new phone would be better off if for no other reason than being able to hold or handle the phone in any manner they choose or need to employ for whatever reason and under whatever circumstance might arise. I think that even Apple understands this, and is why they are said to be working on a fix for a problem that you say really does not exist or does not matter if it does exist.
