Jobs: iPhone 4 Proximity Sensor Fix In Next iOS 4 Update

At today’s iPhone 4 press conference, Steve Jobs acknowledged that there were issues with the device’s proximity sensor and indicated that they were software-related. A fix should come with the next software update.

According to Jobs:

“We’re tracking some problems with the proximity sensor, we’ll have that in the next update.”

Not much detail, as most of the address centred on the reported antenna issues. [GDGT]

    Hmm, there appears to be a problem with my fists proximity sensor, it seems to want to repeatedly punch you…

    This is not an easy position for apple to be in, but I hope it reminds them to form over function is not the best approach to consumer products…I can still have one please!?
