What's with your need to drown out anyone with a differing opinion?
And why do you feel the urge to defend him on every thread
What's with your need to drown out anyone with a differing opinion?
Why not now?![]()
Hello. A few things to say:
I just switched from an iPhone 3GS to a Droid X not because I dislike the iPhone but because I was SOOO SICK of AT&T and constant dropped calls and network unavailability. Verizon is amazing, by the way. I do not believe that survey saying that most AT&T customers love AT&T either. I know four people who just left the iPhone because of the poor network availability both at home and in places we travel for work. Anyway, they are both great phones. I could make my 3GS lose signal with a death grip, and I can not make my Droid X do it. I have made a iPhone 4 lose signal with a death grip too. I personally think that it is a non-issue....people don't usually hold the phones like that and if you do...get a bumper.
Because I've moved house in the last 3 weeks and am having my first chilled weekend in ages, sat at home moaning on forums- I don't fancy going into town and dealing with Saturday traffic/parking!
I've tried to defend the iP4 to a couple of friends with HTC Desire's but I'm giving in and joining them, we decided on close comparison that there isn't a hell of a lot between the two and both do some things better than the other - I could live with the problem easily enough (especially with the unwanted bumper) but it's principal for me now as Apple have been pretty patronising about the whole thing and that's not what I pay top money for. May well get an iP5 when they surface (be interesting to see if they keep the same antenna!) and may finally move over to an iMac when the new ones are out - I don't hate Apple but this phone is an issue for me and answerphone messages when the phone's been in my pocket are bugging me now - could be related to the very weak "vibrate" function as well!!![]()
Get over it Apple your acting like a child. Im never buying another Apple product again.

You never move from your 1 spot ? Watch out for atrophied leg muscles if you ever have to dodge something.![]()

I'm not hellbent on convincing anybody, just dispelling myths about this issue and preventing Apple's deflecting and spinning from spiraling out of control.
Your way off base its not a design flaw, they have made a choice to put it outside for better overall reception which it does have and more space inside. The so called trade off is when in a bad signal area if you're a bonehead and make sure you cover the "Sweet spot you might drop down some bars, but in my experience I still dont drop calls or data.
I own an iPhone 4, and I can't cripple it with one finger. I can't even cripple it with my entire hand, and I live in an area with 3 bars at max. When I travel, I still don't have the issue. A couple bars may drop, but calls are clear and solid.
You're not doing a good job of saving anyone from anything. You're irrelevant.
Did you miss the entire Mac vs. PC series of ads?
They should really bring those back.
I don't know... those were obviously and intentionally toungue-in-cheek.
This seems somewhat venomous.
I wonder if a lot of the perceived dropped calls are just proximity sensor issues. People aren't realizing that it was their face that ended the call. Same end result though...
Do you have ANY idea how small and thin antenna wires are. The amount of space they eat up on the inside is negligible at best. They can fit those things in any random free space. Hell they could of just passed them on the back side of the glass and it would of have ZERO effect on anything.
Others put it in side the plastic body of their phones and it is because plastic does no really effect RF nor does glass.
It's interesting to see how Apple has finally spun the PR in it's direction making everyone "think" there is an issue with ALL phones.

That number is the people who have phoned AppleCare and know about the problem. It is safe to assume, unless you are an apple fanboy that other people have the same problem but don't know what is causing it. It is pathetic how people defend a defective product just because it comes from apple.
Eh? I'm sorry you and KnightWRX can't handle critique, but I'm afraid that is your problem. The kitchen you entered is hot.
