The success is such that the CEO of Apple wanted to apologize stockouts of iPhone 4G, resulting in the expectation of early adopters, always more.

“IPhone 4G is the MOST Successful product launch in Apple’s history. Even so, “we apologize to those who were turned away customers because we did not have enough iPhone 4G supply.However, the statement makes no mention of problems with the antenna of the iPhone 4G. As a reminder, the iPhone 4g suffers from a four defect which results in loss of network if the smartphone is held by the lower left corner. While Steve Jobs has just responded to the Engadget blog “Do not just keep it that way, “Apple recommends acquiring a cover to overcome the iPhone 4G antenna problem.

    Next.. I will get myself an iPhone 4G.. I like it very much, but I still don`t have one..

  2. Tim Says:

    Its called the ‘iPhone 4′ not the ‘iPhone 4G’. An important distinction because 4G implies 4G network capability which the phone doesn’t have. So important to get the name of the phone right.

  3. Ryan Markwell Says:

    What is all with the iPhone 4 and iPhone 4G? I can`t understand why is so important the name of the phone.. or it is a different model and the 4g model has a better antenna or ..
