Apple Admits iPhone 4 Antenna Glitch

Apple has conceded that its glitzy new iPhone 4 suffers from a flaw that makes it all but unusable if held in a certain way.

"Gripping any mobile phone will result in some attenuation of its antenna performance, with certain places being worse than others depending on the placement of the antennas," an Apple spokesman said.
"If you ever experience this on your iPhone 4, avoid gripping it in the lower left corner in a way that covers both sides of the black strip in the metal band, or simply use one of many available cases," the spokesman said, according to the Bloomberg news service.



So you mean to tell me that Apple didn't know about this design flaw before release?
I think not!
