Kicking on, you know all degree'd up now, just trying to make my way in the real world.

I should get us back on topic by posting this lovely Passive Agressive Response to the iPhone4 aerial problem...

He later said to someone "There is no problem." Rumour and scuttlebutt suggests a software patch to come out to improve things.

[IBrake4Rainbows]

Software patches can't improve poor design.

I'm truly amazed Apple got it so very, very wrong.

[pimento]

Yea, but apparently there's a software issue that's exascerbating things. I read something about 3GS owners having an issue too.

1.7 million iPhone 4's already sold. Most successful product release by Apple so far.

Just goes to show you that even if Apple takes a shit, people will still buy it by the millions.

As long as you wear a backpack with Apple on it and drink $7 coffees it's all good.

Class action suit filed over iPhone 4 antenna | Circuit Breaker - CNET News
Apple is about to get sued over the antenna issue. And no, I don't think a software update is going to fix that.

[Blue Supra]

theyre hiring someone to fix it. Assuming the old guy got fired lol.

This plainly a design fault that should have been picked up in testing. I hate to say it but it certainly looks like Apple have considered form over functionality...again.

It's like when you try to do something with your brand new purchase, something you're supposed to do like, you know, having a phone call with your phone, and it doesn't work.
So you are a bit confused, try again, but no, it won't work.
Then you're all like "wtf, didn't they even try it?!".

I used to say that with many pc/console games

Apparently that's pretty much exactly what happened.. the designers fought the engineers and won.

Well they don't really sell their stuff based on engineering, they sell it on image, so I can see how this might have gone well enough before. But this really is kinda strange.
