iPhone 4 Press Conference
After reading some snippets from the iPhone 4 press conference, doesn’t look like Apple will recall the product. Jobs ranting on about how the smartphones aren’t perfect and naming a few other makers of smartphones including HTC Droid Eris, Blackberry Bold 9700, and Samsung Omnia all having the same antenna problems.
It’s official, Apple is giving out free bumper cases and if users are still not happy, then they can return the phone for a full refund. He says no restocking fee either. I can see the media is going to have a field day with this seeing how Jobs didn’t outright admit that there is a problem with the antenna. I think Jobs puts out the fire but you know the media will want to keep the flame burning. :)

a quote from Jobs I find very amusing:
"We've been trying to understand this so when we solve it, we really solve it, not slap a band-aid on it." – Jobs
Maybe he started the fire up again with that comment. He should have end it while he was ahead…
