You’d think that after protracted debacle of the AT&T iPhone 4′s attenuation problems, Apple would have made absolutely certain to fix the issue completely before the Verizon version hit. But this iLounge video indicates otherwise. Antennagate 2.0?
Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego? Sorry, I mean Mark Papermaster – after getting booted from his cushy role heading up the iPhone hardware team at Apple, we’ve not heard of him for over three months.
September is here and as promised Apple has re-evaluated their iPhone case initiative. The verdict: “we are discontinuing the free case program on all iPhone 4s sold after September 30, 2010″. But they’ll still give you one if you complain.
An executive at Mexican mobile phone carrier Telcel claims that Apple has a revised iPhone 4 coming late September that fixes the annoying antenna problems everyone’s seen with the original model.
Back in July, at the iPhone 4 Antennagate conference, Steve Jobs acknowledged the iPhone 4′s proximity sensor issues and said they’d be fixed in the “next update”. According to an Apple Australia spokesperson, they won’t.
It was a huge ordeal in the States, prompting Steve Jobs himself to cut short a Hawaiian vacation to address the media. But here in Australia, we’re getting mixed reports on whether Antennagate is even an issue on the Australian networks.
