Apple iPhone 4 is Now Available Along With Several Design Issues
We find ourselves at the end of June, shortly it is going to be the start of July and everyone knows what is in store! A new iPhone model is about to be released to consumers on, the 24th of June.
Unbelievably enough the iPhone 4 has it's share of drama surrounding it, some of it started as early as Apr of 2010. In early Apr, Gizmodo staff member Jason Chen bought a then top secret iPhone 4 prototype model from a nameless source for a sum of $5,000. Gizmodo.com held extensive coverage of the iPhone 4 and even was discussed on mainstream news channels like FoxNews and MSNBC. His home was later raided by the California Rapid Enforcement Allied Computer Team and had his computers grabbed. The reason for the raid on his home was something to do with commercial espionage; but how was he guilty of that if all that you are doing is buying something? Youre not swiping it so whats the difficulty.
Then when the iPhone was ready for advance order online, the system stopped working but not before over 600,000 preorders had been processed. Not just that, ATTs computers were afflicted by security breaks and people were accessing other peoples accounts incidentally, and having the ability to view and edit other purchasers information. Many are reporting that AT&T shops being closed over the quantity of people making an attempt to preorder and the strain of ATTs computers being far too overloaded. ATT in the end had to shut off the pre-ordering system due to mass misunderstanding and problems. What they really needed was home computer repair service Burnsville for their computer network.
Mashable journalist Sam Axon reported being mugged while standing in line for the iPhone earlier today in Chicago. He posted on Twitter the following "I was just mugged while waiting in line for the iPhone 4. Not kidding." What is this world coming to? Lastly, many reports are available about iPhone 4 hardware problems. Gizmodo has reported that the phone drops calls if a finger is placed on a certain little spot on the lower left side of the body. It turns out you can bridge two antenna with your finger and that will cause the telephone to drop calls. The solution is as easy as a tiny piece of scotch tape, or put the telephone in a case. Such an easy fix for a $500 device, but it should not exist in the first place?
There is also verifiable proof that the screen of the iPhone 4 has issues with yellow pixels, bands and splotches on the screen from ordinary use. Most likely Apple won't mend the difficulty for free and will claim that the user damaged the LCD themselves. Honestly, that problem shouldn't exist when the pricey product hits the open market. Sony learned that lesson some time ago with a huge recall for digital camera repair service to fix the CCD sensor on millions of cameras consumers had purchased.
Apple has a record of making awesome devices, but with the knowledge that the iPhone 4 was going to be as well liked as it is, they really should have invested more in research and development. It's far easier to cope with design problems before you put item into mass production than it is to handle them after the consumer has acquired the item. You don't want to have a product recall for millions of buyers with mobile computer repair Prior Lake after the fact. It's possible Apple will learn an instructive lesson from this release.
