I think they're more likely to just put the bumper in the box, than change the design.
Actually, there are a fair number of non-Apple people who would be privy to such information.I don't believe that anyone would have information like this outside of the Apple campus..
Nah, an outside (non-Apple) antenna engineer already explained several times that a coating wouldn't be effective.I bet nothing happens. If they change anything at all, it will be a coating of some sort.
Being Mexican myself, you can't trust them Mexicans.![]()
But if you stuck the "end call" sticker there it would no longer end the call.![]()
im sure a lot of people are going to be pissed
If they would really do so - and I doubt it as there is no real problem, remember - than they need to exchange it for all the early beta testers (including yours truly), who will be mad like hell. Remember when they dropped the price on the 1st iPhone after few months and all hell broke loose? Imaging this one: "Here we have after just 3 months the improved iP4b with even less of a problem than the previous one..." I would be calling Apple right now and inquire if I can return the defective product including the bumper case and get a functioning phone (ok, functioning as expected, but I seem to have more dropped calls and a worse quality than with the 3Gs, as several people including my Mom mentioned - without bumper, hate the thing).
I'm still hoping for the 64 GB iPhone to be released before my 3GS contract expires in the late December. And without that freaking glass at the back.
I hope there is a change in the hardware, if only to shut the smug Apple fanboys up.
I am on my 7th iPhone 4, I basically swap whenever the screen gets dirty and cite the proximity sensor issue.
IF there is a hardware revision I will be up to number 8.
Rock on Jobs
If people would be pissed because of technical evolution, then they never did deserve an iPhone in the first place. Just like those who threw a fit 3 months after the release of iPhone 1g
Can we exchange our 'defective' iPhones for one of these then?

The proximity sensor is the worst thing about the iphone 4. Dropped calls are now from the screen coming on during a call and then the end call accidentally pressed! Fix THAT apple!
Very childish and costing Apple money.
there is no issue. i can't believe some of you are still clinging on to this overblown antennagate thing.
