How Many Of You Held Off From Purchasing the iPhone 4 because of Antenna Troubles?

[Steviejobz]

Dont find much use in these polls on a forum dedicated to Mac users.

I will take the hard stats from Apple of 3M sold and only 1.7% returned.

There isn't an Android, Nokia, Blackberry or Win7 device on the planet that wouldn't KILL for their own "antennagate" if they had the aforementioned sale/return statistics.

Really? There's no shortage at all as far as I can tell.

There are still 600.000 orders pending in the USA alone, I've heard. And well, over here in The Netherlands, there's a shipping time of 6-10 weeks and it hasn't even launched yet.

I am very happy with my purchase and have had none of the problems folks keep complaining about. Yes, if I take my finger and put it on the black line, the number of bars will eventually fluctuate; but the answer to that is to just not put your finger on the black line. I don't know why folks seem to have so much difficulty doing that. This is the best iPhone I've owned yet and I've owned them all.

Nope, its not a phone issue its a signal issue.

My family has never bought an Apple product until now, we have 2 iPhone 4s, with a white one coming as soon as they're released.

If you have an iPhone and it works, the new one will be better in literally EVERY WAY POSSIBLE.

If you have horrible or NO AT&T coverage, then don't get any smartphone because they don't prioritize reception like some dumb phones.



That said, at the AT&T store some broad bought an 8gb 3GS because she heard there were bugs with the i4. I felt genuinely bad that she was buying an outdated phone that's probably not in the top 5 anymore, just due to the media scare going on with the iPhone.

On Sunday Sprint notified me that my wife & I have until Friday to have AT&T port my number otherwise we would have to pay for another full month of service. Since no retail outlet has iPhone 4's in stock we are forced to stick with Sprint for another month.
