It looks like Apple did get away with it.
- JacobAldridge 16y agoWhich was the purpose for my second paragraph. But for every person like my beautiful wife, there will be someone (or some fraction of someone) for whom the anntena problem will convince them to make a difference decision. So I stand by my point that, in my recollection, Apple handled it poorly, that left a lasting effect on the population, and that lasting effect, however small, means they didn't break all the PR rules and get away with it.

From Apple's last earnings call: "Tim [Cook]: If you look at iPhone, we had record sales with 16.2 million units sold in quarter. As Peter said, we believe we could sell more if we had more supply" If what you're saying is true, and perhaps it is for around 200 nerds scattered around the world, it seems to be irrelevant to Apple's bottom line.
