I guess a new iPhone 5 will be just around the corner, eh? Good thing I waited or I may just end up getting the Motorola Droid X this summer. Kind of sick of AT&T anyway.

Yeah, I actually posted this last night, lol.

Although, in concept, exposing the antenna around the perimeter seems like a good idea, it seems sort of obvious that a hand may end up blocking the signal.

In addition, I have to wonder if there's any additional risk to the hand/body of the user from the concentration of microwave radiation...

Let's add one more problem to the mix:

No problems here. Couldn't be happier.

I don't know man, that just makes you sound like a fan boy in denial. As much as I love my iPhones, now the 4, I can acknowledge that these flaws are real and needs to be fixed right away.

i couldn't reproduce the reception problem nor the screen yellowing problem on both my and my wife's iphones.

The phone takes great photos and videos.

very very happy.

after reading about the antenna flaws, i tried to reproduce it on both my iphone 4s and have not been able to replicate them. i haven't had any issues so far but the facetalk feature sometimes take too long to connect and seems a bit choppy at times. i hope apple is able to fix the issues asap. my phones seem fine so far. i'll keep by fingers crossed and hope they stay that way

Compared to my old 3G, the screen does seem to have a yellow hue....
