    Which tool stood in line all night?
    You just wasted six ... no, seven ... seconds of your life reading this sentence.

        Krill, Guilty. Did it more for the experience of it than to actually get the phone though. It was fun, mostly

          Have you tried making a call while holding the phone? Apparently that design aspect was overlooked.

            I have a phone (iPhone 3G) and it's just fine. I don't buy new gear until it's needed.

              Asher, I saw the reports, but I haven't had any trouble.

                My old phone is turned off in my briefcase in case of an emergency.
                If I ever decide that it needs to be kept on, then I may consider an upgrade.

                  It looks pretty reproducible...

                    That looks like a pretty serious design flaw.

                      When I first heard they were using the actual casing of the phone as an antenna, my first thought was "Uh...is that a good idea? People touch the casing..."

                        I want an Android or WinPhone7. I have no interest in an iPhone because it is both supremely closed down and because it is on AT&T's network.

                          Then there was the botched demo last month at the unveiling.

                          They were trying to show off how awesome the new screen was, but they couldn't load the ****ing websites on the iPhone 4 while the iPhone 3GS right next to it was loading the pages just fine.

                          Steve Jobs blamed all of the people using WiFi in the room and demanded they shut off their device, as if that was the problem...the 3GS was loading things just fine, and all of the journalists liveblogging it had working internet also. Even the backup iPhone 4 did the same thing.

                          Looked like a reception problem then, too.
