So did you get your bumpers ??
BP has capped up the oil well and the world needed something else to talk about. Apple has pitched in with the “death grip” for their new iPhone4. I am pretty sure everybody knows about it by now and for those very few who hasn’t heard , apparently if you hold the new iPhone4 in a certain way and the signal fades away. This is mostly because Apple was “creative” about putting the antenna around the phone. Surprisingly it passed QA !Â
Don’t get me wrong, I love iPhones, I own one of them , I think they are great smartphones and perhaps one of the best out there. But I wish Apple did a better job on these.
So what is Apple doing about addressing the issue ?? Giving out free iPhone4 bumpers and cases so that it cover the “magic” part of the antenna. Well thats one way to “fix” the issue.  I like the way they are doing it.
They have an app on the iTunes App Store, you download it to the iPhone and it walk you though the selection of bumpers and cases available. You order it and off there and viola ! they ship it to you . All free of charge !   The whole process takes less than two minutes (unless you can’t make up your mind on which case you want) . I got to tell , they have some good selection of cases, not anything fancy, but decent ones.
