APPLE 4G KAMAL lol

The only reason this gets a mention today is that it ought to be the name of a song about the iPhone 4 which, it turns out, has a rather frustrating idiosyncrasy. Were this to be summed up in a lyric written by Ms Avery, it might run as follows (in the smooth jazz style):
With your warm embrace so light, and your gentle touch so deft
Promise me you’ll never let me fall.
Just hold me on the right, don’t hold me on the left,
‘cause if you do I’ll drop the bloody call.
The problem, it seems, is the location of the antenna on the new model (queued for this week by a substantial number of devotees) is located on the bottom left hand side of the phone. When held in the left hand for a call, the antenna is covered and the call drops. This should be a pretty serious problem for Apple, whose response is simply to advise the people who queued all day to get their hands on the new phone just not to hold it in that way. Even by Apple’s standards this is breathtakingly dismissive.
