1) For a lot of people, the attenuation doesn't appear to be an issue. For me it's only an issue in a few places (I'm able to reproduce it, but it does not affect my real world usage of the phone). So if the numbers are even remotely true, this only affects a few people in a few locations depending on their AT&T signal.

2) For the people who the attenuation *IS* an issue, Apple is providing a free case to help out so they can hold it however they want. (FYI, Google told you

3) If you're morally opposed to owning a case, you can just not hold the phone that way.

4) If you're not happy with owning a case, you can always just not hold it from the bottom.

5) If you are having issues with the phone, *and* you're morally opposed to cha...

If your remark about getting an phone with a blockbuster app was directed at the Motorola Droid x, then Yes, people should get that phone.

Doing this will mean Apple has to "change the game again" instead of just how you hold your phone (not sure about the above part). You must be Apples B%^%H


So basically thats what he said in English, and then he threw himself in a blender or something.

unless you're wearing really tight pants it's not an issue. the thing is so flat you don't really notice it (the bulge is the thickness of the OG droid)

Yeah, you're better off keeping a Nokia 252C in your pocket for that.

If the girl notices a droidx bulge, she'll either think you're hiding a calculator, or that you have a REALLY sick kink.

Oh, so, the phone's too big now? You do realize that there are plenty of people who buy phones based on size, right? I mean, Heaven forbid that people have a choice in hardware. I believe that Apple dumped the "Think Different" slogan for a very obvious reason.

I think it's clown-sized and yes it's too big for comfortable one-handed operation.

That of course is just a matter of opinion. People do have different hand sizes...

I don't have an issue with Apple products or fans of Apple. However, if the newest iPhone came out with a 4.3" screen, Apple fans would be applauding the decision. Also, the newest iPhone is having documented problems in spite of whether or not certain users are having problems or not. To say that users of the device need to hold it in a certain manner is laughable. Apple needs to own up to the obvious defect instead of simply offering an accessory to 'correct' it. Apple fans would be sounding off if an Android device were experiencing these problems.

I've used a demo model. I own a handset with Android (now 2.2) on it.
