I ordered my iPhone 4 from AT&T with great excitement. I was getting more speed, more pixels, more cameras, and more storage after using my iPhone 3G for two years. The iPhone 3G served me very well over the last 22 months or so but it was finally time to upgrade.

The problem is that as I write this post on my new 32GB iPhone 4, a huge problem snickers at me every moment. No Service. Searching… Single bar service in a 5 bar coverage area. Sad. Pathetic.

I’m just guessing the idea behind making the outer rim of the phone the antennae was so that they COULD make the thinnest phone on the earth. Frankly, you can have your millimeters back, Apple.

I’ve never been truly disappointed with an Apple product and I still am not. I’ll succumb to the Steve and buy a Bumper or some other case in the next few days, and everything will *probably* be as right as rain. But the sheer fact that I can’t hold my $700 computer the way I want to is pathetic.

Steve’s comments today don’t hold water… at all. And I quote:

“Sure there are – every phone has these areas of sensitivity, depending on the location of the antenna. Some phones even ship with labels warning customers to not cover certain areas with their hands.”

Steve, look at me in the eyes and tell me something. Do you really expect me to hold a phone without touching antennas when the phone is wrapped in the antennas?

You’re a moron. I digress.
