Replacing my lost mobile phone

[TVTiZtiK]

I personally have an iPhone 4. It's great for everything...except making calls. The antenna issue is ridiculous.

I'm a big fan of the Andriod OS, but in the end I still prefer iOS. iOS is just much more refined and polished. The UI is consistent through almost all the apps and various parts of the US.

A colleague of mine called it before it had been released:

Very recently, Apple announced job openings in "antenna design" :ROTF:

The problem with the antenna design is they didn't electrically isolate it so if you are physically touching it, you are essentially grounding it out. Thats why the "scotch tape" fix or just putting it in a case of some sort works. But it begs asking "Did anyone at Apple actually HOLD one to make a call before they were go on the final design?" If someone did they need to fire his/her ass.
