If you touch the spot with your hand it does lose signal. It's worse when you're hands are a bit clammy and you're on GPRS with WIFI enabled.

But most of the time when I'm holding the phone my hand doesn't even touch that area.

If you use push email then only RIMs implementation is battery efficient, they have patents on it. Everyone else has to do it differently in a more intensive way.

There's a lot of people who want to see Apple fail. If every iPod owner decides their next phone is an iPhone then there would be a lot of people in trouble.

I am still waiting for my iPhone 4 to get shipped. It'll do so eventually. Lol.

Got an e-mail regarding the Bumper program. Nice one, but, probably get a case that will protect it better, especially the screen.

The 'Invisible-Shield' for my 3Gs has kept it like brand new. Superb case and well worth the money.

Not sure I quite follow. In what way would they be in trouble?

The media hype over the problems with the iPhone4 is as often the case with the media over exagerated.

I thought gilesjuk meant that non-Apple phone makers would be in trouble.

ahh I see..........

Although, as Apple are unable to keep up with current demand, perhaps he did mean Apple.
