While I normally don’t call out companies in my posts here, I can’t help but comment when a company completely falls all over itself trying to correct an issue. As many know, the recent iPhone 4 debacle involves poor antenna reception when the phone is held normally in a person’s left hand while making a call. Apple’s response for awhile was, “Well, don’t hold the phone that way.” That’s like telling someone whose feet hurt, not to walk by using their feet. Apple’s latest trick is to find any competing phone (read: Android, which has already surpassed them in activated units) and knock it down several notches by claiming these phones, too, have issues with reception if you hold them a certain way.
Well OK then, Mr. Jobs, don’t hold the Android phones that way.
