R’uh R’oh, could it be, no, could it? Yup, it seems as though Apple is again coming under fire for reception issues; this time with their recently released CDMA iteration of the ever-popular iPhone 4 for Verizon. Consumer Reports is reporting that during their testing, the Verizon iPhone had the same “death grip” style issue [...]

… and you select your case using an application. Really, there’s an app for that. Apple’s terms and conditions are available on the site, including eligibility and what to do if you’ve already paid for one. I personally don’t have the antenna problem on my iPhone, and don’t want to case its beauty, but I’ll [...]

As always, an Apple press event completely shuts down the internet and suffocates all other news. For the most part, it seems that all the news surrounds Apple’s supposed “Anntenna-gate” situation. All this antenna talk has swiftly become a headache for everyone, I suspect that it will be completely forgotten. As for Apple bringing other [...]

Sound off in the comments with your thoughts and ideas on today’s conference regarding Apple’s response to the antenna problem. How do you think Apple should have realistically handled the situation? Did they satisfy your qualms? I’d like to hear from iPhone 4 owners in particular - everyone else seems to be entirely non-objective on [...]

Ooh, the heat is on. Along with being apologetic to iPhone 4 owners, Apple also doubles back with a “see, it happens to everyone” info page. While the news isn’t, news, so to speak, it does highlight the problem with holding any kind of phone. The reason it’s such a big deal now is likely [...]

The conference is over, here’s what we got: iPhone 4 drops “1 more call per hundred” compared to the 3GS 0.55% of complaints were antenna/reception related Lots of pseudo-problem admittance and apologies Cases DO fix the problem Apple will allow a full refund until September 30th if you’re unhappy Otherwise, you’ll get your choice of a free [...]

Quick bit of news. There’s a conference about the iPhone 4 this Friday, the 16th. The presumption is that Apple will tackle the “death grip” issue once and for all. Maybe they’ll announce the white iPhone 4 as well. This would be appropriate since I just put an order in for the black one after [...]

Now before I go into too many details, this report came to me this morning, from an AT&T employee who gave me zero evidence to support this other than his/her claim. This makes me incredibly wary of it’s factual basis. Here’s what I was told: the antenna bands on the iPhone will basically be rotated, [...]

Oh my goodness! The thing everyone was speculating about but never thought Apple would do might be happening: A voluntary recall! This would imply that the device causes no harm to users (like a government forced one), but that Apple may be admitting to a design flaw that must be fixed. Now keep in mind, it’s [...]
