article published on 2 July, 2010
After a more than a week of dismissing iPhone 4 user complaints about reception problems and dropped calls as a non-issue, Apple has announced they're working on an update to the phone's OS.
The announcement follows an interesting report on AnandTech showing the actual difference in Signal to Noise Ratio (SNR) for each additional bar of signal displayed on the phone varies wildly. SNR ... [ read the full article ]

bigger fools all those apple ass kissers who bought one but then again, they obviously have more money than sense and those that don't, buy it for the trendy look at me factor as they are sad and desperate and friendless.

Yeah, that would be great...but Apple users don't care about problems. I remember they used to make a PC that had a non-shielded speaker right next to the hard drive...every time it played a sound (even the startup sound) the system would crash hard. Even back then, apple users didn't care! Apple never issued a recall; but they did issue a system update that allowed the system to keep running for a few seconds while the hard drive figured out what it was again; you still couldn't listen to music or sound (the two main selling points of the system), but at least you could get to the desktop. At least the iphone4 works if you hold it just right!

Was there a rumour that iPhone 4 was going to be recalled?

I was driving my car and it ran out of fuel leaving me stranded on the motorway. So I pulled out the fuel guage and was able to drive across the planet to Steve Jobs house and tell him how to fix the iPhone 4. During my trip around the earth I also noted that no iPhone 4s are available for sale as they might have to be recalled. Steve also told me that people don't hold their iPhones properly. What they should do is glue it to a large stick and hold it six feet above your head and you will have a thirteen billion bar signal.

Very bad quality control and engineering is apparent. Why would any responsible engineering group release something like this with a major bug. I have a friend and I have experienced the dropped signal in the middle of a call. This is apparent any section of Columbus Ohio where AT&T transmitters are located everywhere. Other less expensive smart phones used under the same circumstances work great. "Apple should make things right...." lol

Because of crap like this Apple should do what microsoft did and give us an iphone to test for a year like microsoft did with Windows 7 RC.....then again maybe Apple is doing that in their own way, they just want the iphone 4 testers to pay them (Apple) for testing their iphone for the company lol

The head of "Quality Control" for Apple, Mr. Core, was sitting at his desk looking at the best phone ever made in the world. The head of Marketing, Mr. Rush, was standing in the doorway of the quality control office. Rush placed a call on the 4G to Mr. Core. On seeing Core answering the phone he asked how the reception was. With a huge smile on his face he answered it's great and lets tell Steve to start shipping these masterpieces quickly before we lose another one at that bar.
