For anyone new here (or even regular members, who may have forgotten), it might seem like the iPhone 4 is a piece of crap from looking at the threads being created. Weve got the yellow screen threads, the loss of cell signal threads, the software bug threads, the bad battery threads, and the list goes on. What you have to remember is that people are going to come to post here to mainly complain. Most users of the iPhone are probably happily using their device and dont even know MacRumors (MR) exists. Or if they do know about MR, theyre not going to bother to post on here about it.
Look at all the threads and youll find that most people posting are newer members, which should tell you something. If I saw some of the more established members making these posts in droves, I might think something was up, but that doesnt seem to be the case.
Anyway, Im not saying some of these concerns are not possibly valid, but dont make a decision about the iPhone 4 solely based on what you read here. Also, give it some time for the reviews to come out from other sites.
So, if you want to get some added perspective, look back to a year ago and read the posts about the 3GS. Youll find much the same threads as these. I dont believe the 3GS was an utter failure. I doubt the iPhone 4 is a failure, as well.
My two cents.
