Jobs is blowing shit out of his mouth
10:21AM "This is not a large number. This doesn't jibe with what you read. Let's keep going. So smartphones have weaknesses, and AppleCare data shows only 0.55% have called in about reception issues. The third, return rates... AT&T has a 'buyer's remorse' clause, you can return a phone no questions asked. Apple has the same thing. So what are our return rates? Well we're going to compare it to the iPhone 3GS..." -
"Even though we think the iPhone 4 is superior to the 3GS antenna... it drops more calls per 100 than the 3GS. We're being transparent. So how many more does it drop than the 3GS? This is hard data... the iPhone 4 drops less than one additional call per 100 than the 3GS. Less than one."

Yep, and evidently Steve wants them to now return it if they're not happy with it 100%. I say take the advice, lmfao.43-922-863 Shut up and play your guitar.

"We think this has been so blown out of proportion... it's fun to have a story, but it's not fun on the other side. So here's what we're going to do to make our users happy. The first part is the software update, that fixes the way the bars report and other bugs, that's out now. Second, people said the bumper fixes everything... 'why don't you give everybody a case'? Okay -- we'll give you a free case."

Man, my friends who have the new iphone are so fucking defensive about it.
I don't understand being so in love with a manufacturer that you live in denial about the product quality. Apple brand loyalty is so off the charts. You are not your phone!
Oh, and they just said on CNN there WILL be free bumpers, so woot for you guys!Comment

I think apple makes a great product and i dont have have an iPhone, but im assuming if there is a problem, Apple will fix it. The always do and as a result, they get that many more "fanboys".

10:44AM Q: Were you told about the design before the phone was released?
Steve: Are you talking about the Bloomberg article? That's a crock, and we've challenged them to show proof that that. If anyone had said this thing has problems, we would have dispatched people to deal with that issue.

If he knew about the problem beforehand as he indicated in the press conference why not include a bumper or other solution to begin with. He makes it sound as though they are including the bumper only because the customer wants it not because it is needed.Comment

I have one, I have the rubber case for it, I've dropped the phone a few times, but never dropped calls. Maybe It just a myth everyone is buying into all for a free case.Comment

The fanboys on the mac board Im on, are holding on to that like its gospel. Its like just because he said a bunch of numbers doesnt mean its real. Also returning a phone isnt like returning a sweater its a royal pain in the ass. The best is watching them trash consumer reports possible the most unbiased publication in the usa. lolJobs is blowing shit out of his mouth
