so.....apple's response to the shit storm about their antenna is to show that all phones lose reception when you hold it a certain way (which looks like the exact same way in every single one of their videos).

there's a link to their official site that shows this here: http://www.apple.com/antenna/

anybody own any of these phones? cause i own a blackberry 9700 and i tried to lose signal the same way they show on their site and in their video but no dice!

To me, it just seems like Apple is being a huge cuntrag. It's like in elementary school when you get in trouble for not doing your homework and you reply with "Johnny didn't do his either!" that's just low...and it sickens me. You know what? it's worse than that because apple have taken videos to "prove" it which is more like saying "Johnny didn't do his either! Look!" and then pulling Johnny's workbook out of his backpack and flipping it to the empty page.

Also, anybody else notice that the iphones are the only phones that do not start off with full bars? Assuming that it's true that all phones lose signal when you hold it the way they show (which isn't working for me, but who knows! i may be doing it wrong), doesn't it say something about the iphone's reception in general considering all the other phones start off with perfect reception while the iphone does not?
I tend to stay away from iphones because of the negativity I hear about them, but this is something I haven't heard before.
I'm kind of disheartened that people don't adhere to the parable of the surgeon, it goes something like this:

So you've got a 4 surgeons and one of them doesn't show up. You can't get 75% on the surgery, you have to do the full 100% without the one that didn't show up. Complaining that the forth didn't show up doesn't solve anything, the true resolution is getting the shit done. Complaints are for after surgery is completed.

I thought the business world adhered to something similar in that, you fix what others have been unable to fix, THEN you may GLOAT that you've created the superior product. =/

I'm also disappointed in the whole foxconn suicides =( Another one reported today.. agh
