Rather than the odd reply, can you please write a short summary of the "advantages" the exterior antenna should bring vs what the design would actually do?

im not sure what you mean by the vs bit

Apple store? http://store.apple.com/uk/brow ... shop_iphone/family/iphone

hm didnt think of that and it doesnt seem to be available in the german apple store yet
still ~750€ (with the case youll need despite being designed in a way to obstruct you from plugging in apple cables into your phone) is rather ridiculous

if i buy one from the apple store then will o2 give me a micro sim? because my current contract one is a normal sized sim and the contract is for a 3g iphone so would they be willing to give me a micro sim?

I meant what you think of their claim as to reasons why they put it on the outside etc, and what you think is wrong with the antenna placement in your professional opinion.

iSpazio's Test
Sorry, it's in Italian, but it shows that it doesn't really short. I know, it's the wrong hand, but if it does it with the left one, it will do it also with the right one.
Even if you physically short the antennas with a key, as in this video (again, sorry for the Italian) it drop 3/4 bars, but it stays connected. And it's with Wind, one of the worst carriers we have in Italy. With Vodafone or TIM it would have been for sure better.

the video i watched was Orange. what's your point?

Just, don't believe Apple haters always like they are God.

oh really, and apple users aren't? that's the funniest statement i've seen today.

Quote from freddyalek90 :

As I proved in one of my earlier posts, they found every time some faults, and usually are proven wrong.

oh really? let's break them down.

Display with yellow patches? It will be perfect in a week.

they shouldn't leave the factory if they're not properly manufactured. an hour in some oven would probably be all it needs to cure the glue. that's not fanboy, that's common sense.

Quote from freddyalek90 :

Antennas shorting? Just don't hold it from the bottom. If you hold it naturally, you won't touch both antennas, or at least not too much.

ever since the dawn of mobile telephony, the antenna has always been at the top of the device, even if there is no visible antenna. i'm sorry, but the "you're holding it wrong" excuse doesn't have much ground here.

I'm totally with dawesdust here. Haters gonna hate.
And if you are wondering, I'm not a fanboy. I just fell in love with a phone which <<apple orgasm>>

so you're going to be as blind as dawesdust? i guess ignorance really is bliss.

Quote from Jakg :

the basic idea is sound... you free up space inside and are able to build much larger antennas (generally speaking large = good)
trouble is they put them on the side of the phone which apart from that well see loads and loads of pictures of shattered glass on the back of iphones put the antennas in the same spot where you touch the phone and naturally causes them to radiate off to the side and thus into your head which both reduces reception and may or may not be a health problem
also they didnt make the most (or anything really) of the available space which would have allowed them to place several antennas on the phones body and make use of diversity techniques (might cause space problems inside depending on how large the transceiver is)

well just ordered one from Apple, used one today in O2 Store and i have to say its very nice and seemed to handle the multitasking very well and the screen is amazingly clear compared to my current 3g which is clear anyway. Didnt get a chance to try any other features as got pounced on by sales people

Not so perfect after all is it when even Steve Jobs says it may be recalled.

right click on ipod in itunes and back up

then when you install it do restore so it will restore to factory defaults then install cause the backup when installing it doesn't work.

so what i do is.

backup

restore

update

and somehow put the backup again?

there is option to restore your backup on the same menu

and it should say restore and update after you click restore

lol

if you update it properly then it will put everything back that it has backed up including songs in specific playlists if thats how you use the ipod
