Just realised that at the WWDC keynote the iPhone would connect to the internet when Jobs held the phone in his left hand. So there this "problem" was a feature all along.

two things wrong with your post.....
!) as said he used wifi
2) check the signal bars..... they never dropped.

if your referring to when it said about no data service.... he's probably using a sim with no data enabled when wifi dropped on the iPhone 4 so when no wifi it tries data service which isn't activated
 
No. It was a Wi-fi issue. The death grip doesn't affect Wi-fi. You are wrong.

Wrong.

Watch 1:04 into the video. The phone states "Could not activate cellular data network"

Funny how 3GS doesn't show this message and can actually load the website.

The point is simple folks:

At WWDC, the iPhone 3GS - all 3 of them being used in rotation - never failed during that demo, in the same high signal overload heavy interference conference hall environment.

But the iPhone 4 - all 3 of them - failed miserably.

Case closed.
 
it was wifi, he was not trying to use cellular data.....

Also the iphone 4 was in his right hand...

had you ever thought that it was a sim with NO data activated or that they disabled the cellular data in setting? can see 4 bars on at&t at the time if it was the death grip there wouldn't be as many bars ;)

This thread is for the retarded.
and yet you replied to this..... bazinga
