Apple #iPhone 4 Drops Signal.
Now we know why apple released their own protective bumper for the iPhone. Its because they forgot anybody was going to be holding the new iPhone 4 to make a call.
Simple really don't know why I did not see this problem earlier.
So basically you have an insulated material say a nice shine glass composite case then you put a metal ring around the edge of the phone and then segregate that ring, then you wire up that ring to the rf antenna of your phone.
Result great signal as the antenna is open to the air and nothing to restrict it.
Now here is the problem, add a human being to the equation, they hold the phone toughing the glass casing and the metal surround, no problem with the glass but when the antenna comes into contact with the skin the signal is effectively earthed out and the reception on the phone drops and in a lot of occasions the signal disappears completely.
Some unfortunate iPhone 4 users have demonstrated the problem by simply resting a metal object across the gap on the bottom left of the phone.
Big problem, remember the problems Steve had demonstrating the phone on wifi at WWDC, may be this earthing problem had an effect there too. ?
So it looks like apple brought out the silly little bumper because they knew about this fault, and lets face it, its an embarrassing fault for apple.
Some fixes are tape or of course the apple bumper.
Check here for a full listing of what Gizmodo found.
I liked this one, i was thinking the exact same thing.

The iGlove, using this rubber actually improves sensitivity ! :)Tuesday
Apple release new Mac mini, Again ! #apple #mac
Apple released details of the new new Mac mini today, I say new new because they only recently up the spec of the mac mini along with a new mini hdmi port that did not support audio only video.
But if you check apple now you are greeted by a newly designed Mac Mini, its another £100 or so for the new model but has an integrated psu and an hdmi that support audio too !
Wow that was a quick re development apple ! makes me wonder why they even bothered with the interim version, needed to shift some old cases perhaps ?
