Why is it a lame solution?

Return the phone if it's a problem, otherwise learn to deal with it.

Its not lame, but "lame duck." Difference.

Returning it is not a solution. Do you thionk Apple or SJ would asvocate such an option.

There's a difference between a fix and a band-aid solution, which only masks the broader issue.

"man up?" = are we in the ghetto?

Do females have to man up?

Wha does it mean to "man up?"

To acquiesce and settle. Accept flaws. Give MORe money ($30) to Apple for a bumper so the phone works?

Many of us have trouble with strong cell signals as it is, this only exacerbates the issue. Especially for those who are left-handed.

These are not solutions to the problem. They are only burying the problem. Its no different than taking a diet pill and cholestrol meds in lieu of expercise and eating a healthy diet.

One day when you guys get older and mature, your attitude wil change as an adult. I've noticed a lot of cursing and short-sightedness (read: lack of wisdom or any business acumen) around here. I dont know whether to attribute it to the ignorant youth, cult-like complacency or just plain lack of intelligent understanding.
 
Actually it didn't matter he was using WiFi anyway during the Keynote, and second because it isn't his personal phone
 
Totally agree with OP.

Steve Jobs is cool and all, but we don't have to agree with everything he says. And just cause we buy an apple product, doesn't mean we have to accept it as perfect. It is still OK to voice our complaints.

For those who are complaining about this thread, please let me know if you are ever in need of any products or services. I would be more than happy to provide them for you.

Wow. Patronising, arrogant and rude. I don't know whether to attribute it to the miserable old, cult-like complaining or just plain lack of intelligent understanding.
 
OP, are you new here? Please search as this has been posted oh a gazillion times already

He isn't new. He joined back in December when the 27" iMac was having its issues and saying how Apple sucks for letting defective products out the door and not being forth coming and telling us there is a problem and they are fixing it, etc.

Hey quagmire, go drain your sumps and do a mag check on your 152. :rolleyes:

Your comments have ZERO to do with this discussion.
 
NOT ALL PHONES HAVE THE PROBLEM. Therefore, no "hypocrisy"!

Get it? That's EXACTLY how I told my iPhone 4 and it works perfectly.

If your iPhone DOES exhibit the issue then either don't hold it that way temporarily until a fix comes out, or permanently, try to exchange it, or return it.

What a "lame duck" solution. What's your occupation, BTW?

I work in tech support for a popular UK department store but how does that help you with YOUR iPhone 4 problem?

Hmm that's right it doesn't.

But seriously.

Go return the phone if it is bugging you?

What does coming to complain on a internet message board achieve?

Oh I know.

NOTHING!

Seriously people. Keep the phone and adapt until Apple offer a fix or take it back. Your choice. I'm keeping mine, I'm over the moon with it. Returning the phone solves YOUR personal problem OP, isn't that all you should be concerned about?

ts not lame, but "lame duck." Difference.

I don't think he really cares if you return it, why would he? They would just resell it to someone more grateful. After all Apple have a refund policy for this very reason for when customers are not satisfied. Do yourself a favour, use it.

Okay let's resort to petty insults

I think it's you OP who needs to mature a bit. Why come here whining about it? Surely a mature person would have realised what to do by now. A mature person would also know how to search these forums so they avoid starting the 1000th thread on this topic

Have a nice day OP.

:)
 
You're one of those guys? LOL.


HEY EVERYONE, I FOUND A VIDEO OF THIS FAT DORK PRETENDING HE'S A SITH LORD. IT'S HILARIOUS. STAR WARS KID!?!?!?!
