Crystal clear calls? I have not as yet heard a crystal clear
call
Because it doesn't matter in normal use. It appears that it may matter in some
extreme cases. You are insisting that they must design their product for the
extreme case and make the rest of us suffer the consequences. You have not
explained why they must do such a silly thing. You just insist

Yep, your mommy can't be with you all the time.

Well you have a silly notion. It is amazing how you fixate on a tiny

I suggest duct tape. Duct tape cures all ills.

Apple could have easily eliminated that 1/8 inch of problematic area

This new iPhone will most likely be the first and last phone made by
Apple that uses an antenna of which

It is also interesting to note how many of the other commentators just
won't let go of the original story.

Gripping any mobile phone will result in some attenuation of its antenna
performance, with certain places being worse than others depending on the
placement of the antennas. This is a fact of life for every wireless phone.

Read Gibson's analysis and you will understand that this is really a
very marginal problem. If one has good signal strength it won't matter
how you hold the phone. If your signal strength is about to go over a
cliff, anything you do can potentially push you over. One of those
things is
I say tongue and cheek. Half of what Jobs says is spin or disingenuous. At

You are right, and for whatever reason Apple ignored the physics. I say it
was for form over function, you can deny all you want, but Apple has
admitted the problem.
