Fake Steve was eerily prescient here. From June 24: "First of all, this is not a big issue. If you’re experiencing this, most likely it’s not the phone at all — most likely you’re just living in a place where there’s bad reception, in which case the solution is simple: you need to move." http://www.fakesteve.net/2010/06/you-assholes-need-to-stop-sending-emails-to-me-about-this-antenna-issue.html http://www.fakesteve.net/2010/06/you-assholes-need-to-stop-s...
Compare that to the real thing: "Users observing a drop of several bars when they grip their iPhone in a certain way are most likely in an area with very weak signal strength, but they don’t know it because we are erroneously displaying 4 or 5 bars. Their big drop in bars is because their high bars were never real in the first place."
- boredguy8 16y agoDan Lyons has been covering tech for a long time, so he'd hopefully get some things right. And this isn't the first time he's been spot on--his blogs on Schmidt's involvement on the Apple board are amazing and hilarious. But every time he's right these days, I think it's karma balancing out how wrong he was on SCO-Linux.
