Apple is really screwing things up when it comes to the iPhone 4 and its antenna issues. First, Steve Jobs sends an e-mail to an iPhone 4 user telling him to just don’t hold it that way (the way that causes the reception to drop). Really bad customer service, Steve! Well, shortly after he writes … Read more →

We knew it was just a matter of time before somebody, usually iSuppli, would take apart the iPhone 4 and do some calculations on what the different parts cost.
