iPhone 4 Reception Issues

You may have heard of the iPhone 4 "Reception issues". If you haven't... I might ask if you heard there was an oil spill in the Gulf of Mexico, or if you knew America is currently fighting in a war in Afghanistan? This issue of the long anticipated iPhone, has wildly been blown out of proportion. The phone is not perfect, sure there is room for improvement, but it's really not all that bad. I love the phone. With that being said. I couldn't help but poke fun at some of the people that expected more. If you want a cell phone that never drops calls... don't get one through AT&T. If the device works 'well enough' as a phone, but blows most point and shoot cameras out of the water, has more calculator apps than ASU's engineering school, and can play games as well as the wii...then why give it a hard time for dropping a call or two. Sure I would have liked to see an improvement from my iPhone 3GS... But everything else improved. They are just trapped on a crappy network.

However, if Apple decided to put function above form in an effort to overcome the flawed network where they reside (AT&T)...Then the new iPhone4 might have looked something like this:

I created this image from scratch. It is not real (before you ask)... it is a completely computer generated model.
