As a business you live and die by the reputation you build for customer service, someone should remind Apple of that fact.

The other thing is that this attitude in customers, myself included, extends to ALL that company's products... not just the one that initially had the problem.

I'm just gonna wait a bit before getting the 4.

I own the 3 and can't comment on the 4's alleged reception problem other than to say that everyone I know that has the 4 loves it and isn't complaining about reception problems. Just the same, I'm cool with the 3 for now. Loved it when I got it, still do.

My phone is used a great deal for work and if the reception problem affected me and I was in the 1% complainer club, it could potentially cost me a great deal of business which would negate all the benefits of a sexy design with video conferencing and blazing fast speeds making Superman seem like a snail.

As far as Steve Jobs goes, I like his way of doing things a whole lot more than Bill Gates'.

I couldn't see Microsoft giving anything away nor admitting any problem in any of their products, let alone listening to the consumer while developing them.

Did I hear someone say Vista?

The COO of MSFT actually said that he thinks the iphone 4 will be Apple's vista. MSFT is fully admitting that vista sucked now that 7 is out. 7 is nice, but I haven't used my PC enough to compare it to OSX.

Everyone complaining about the iPhone, I certainly don't hear them demand an industry-wide recall. Let's just focus on Apple, the company who can do nothing right. Before the press conference yesterday people were saying, "Give free bumpers to everyone Steve!". He not only gives out free cases to every customer through Septemember 30, he says if you don't like the phone bring it back and we'll issue a full refund with no restocking fee. Nothing is ever good enough I tell ya.

The reason you don't hear about this that you posted and the reason there are no press conferences to announce you can return it for full credit or you can be provided a free fix, which most of us would buy anyway to protect the device is..........................................


ready?............................................


drumroll..........................................


here it comes...................................


might be silly but true........................


NONE of them have sold 1.5 million in one week.


I wonder how many of all those devices listed actually have sold to date, in comparison to iPhone 4's in only a few weeks.

As usual, Blueface is right on with his comment. Also, the iPhone's issue just happens to be in such a place that is making people drop calls depending on how they hold it.

Anyway, my bestskinsever skin has all but solved my issue. I can still get it to drop one bar, but the big drop is a lot harder to make happen now. It's really funny how sensitive that antenna is.
