I wonder if the recent problems with the new iPhone will hurt Apple's sales and stock price. For some reason the phone seems to have a design flaw in that the position of its atenna causes many calls to be dropped if you hold the phone a certain way. To solve this problem Apple has decided to give all iPhone 4 users a free carrying case which is supposed to remedy the problem.
Maybe this was the plan all along in order to entice buyers to go and pay $30 for the "bumpers". If this is the case then their plan has failed miserably. Maybe they didn't expect there to be such an uproar about the phone's glitch.
One day maybe we will realize that companies put out products with half of their true capabilities in order to save some of the functionalty for the "next generation" of their products. Why can't we just have it all right now instead of waiting for six different versions of the same product to come out with only slight differences?
