Sorry to come across as an apple basher but this made me laugh this morning:

BBC News - Apple issues advice to avoid iPhone flaw

So not only is the wifi crap (after the embarrassing presentation the other week) but now this.

Major design flaw if you can hold a phone... what's even funnier is apples advice and telling people to buy an extra to fix the problem...now I can laugh at all those people who cued up over night :roflmao:

They better hope they fix it lol if they fail in the phone market they could be in trouble (i dont think the ipad is gonna take off like they are hoping its gonna).

I will say though, besides the two flaws that have been exposed the iphone 4 does look pretty nice. The screen quality is 2nd to none, although i think they should have made it a little bigger.

Does anyone know what provider will carries the phone in the US?

To be fair, the phone works. It's not Apples fault that customers want to actually touch it as well :rolleyes:

There are two other MAJOR design flaws:

1) It uses AT&T
2) Apple made it

Not to be Apple bashing, but the company has just not EVER impressed me with their business decisions.

Did they stick a wire in the wrong place or something? Is a wire earthing on the edge? I guess it's better than it electrocuting you or exploding, actually, probably not.
I only like apple for their Ipods. Purely for the ipod touch and jailbreaking :p

I wouldn't buy an Iphone.
