Apple Blames iPhone 4 Reception Issue on Faulty Formula
More bars in More Places?
I wonder how many other phones have this "flaw"? Those who can should work to keep phone makers honest.

att= lots of advertising money, no more left for expanding towers... solution? we will rig the phones to lie! genius!

If AT&T lost or misspent it's money anywhere... it was due to the horrible decision making of the suits that agreed to the Apple contract! AT&T didn't spend a lot of money on it's advertising as many people assume incorrectly. Of course, you wouldn't know that... you believe probably believe everything you hear and read if it's something you blindly have preference to.
Apple did admit that the iphones were incorrectly showing reception that it did not have... and yes, that could be perceived as AT&T have a craptacular network. But that doesn't mean AT&T rigged all phones to show more bars. Each manufacturer sets up the programming for that... so if you want to call anybody liars, well you can start with HTC, cause they make phones for...

AT&T spends only 1/3 of the ad money as VZW. They do spend more than Sprint and T-Mobile combined. However the iPhone's signal miscalculation is nothing new to phone manufacturers.
It is how they were manufactured by Apple. AT&T has nothing to do with how the phone is manufactured.
For the record AT&T's network is fine as are the networks of all of the industry. All of the companies are run by smart people who make decisions. Sometimes they work out well and sometimes they don't. Every carrier drive tests their network to assure quality.

For the record, AT&T's network is NOT FINE in major metropolitan areas like NYC. Every iPhone owner I've talked to in the NYC area swears they'll jump ship the day the iPhone becomes available for Verizon.
Furthermore, AT&T got the worst ratings of the BIG 4 in Consumer Reports user surveys NATIONALLY in EVERY ASPECT including voice quality, signal, and customer service.
On the flip side, the iPhone owners I know in FL, CA, and GA have no complaints with the AT&T service.
