Why would they put the Apple logo on this KIRF??

The screen problem fixes its self

The reception problem is only caused by bridging the two antennas on the outside with your skin, so a fix would be to not connect the area where the antennas spit on the bottom left, so hold either one side when making call, or just get a case / bumper.

Engadget and the media is really exaggerating these "issues" especially Gizmodo, which is to be expected, because they are just getting revenge for being left out of the iPhone 4 stuff.]]>Jun 24th 2010 12:17PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/Let me guess, holding your phone like a grade A dork is now standard.]]>Jun 24th 2010 3:27PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/Jun 24th 2010 11:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/Jun 24th 2010 11:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/http://www.engadget.com/2010/06/24/keeping-it-real-fake-ephone-wont-shatter-when-you-drop-it-mig/
