MG Siegler (via his personal Tumblr):
He also brings up “Antennagate” for good measure. Remember, everyone stated this was a colossal fuck up that would sink the iPhone because the devices weren’t tested enough. Of course they actually were. And Apple sold over 20 million units of the “defective” device last quarter. A record.
MG was pointing out the absurdity of some report I won’t even link to where a guy says iPhone 5 will arrive in October and not September. I personally don’t care when it gets here because I still TO THIS DAY have signal issues with my iPhone. No one talks about it anymore but, every single day of my life with the iPhone 4, I have to hold it upside down with the screen facing away from me to load webpages, emails and send tweets. I hate talking on the phone because the signal drops. My iPhone signal is shit and I hate it. Thank god I have WiFi at home at work. If I didn’t, this phone would have been in the trash can and I’d be an Android user.
Antenna gate should have been made to be a bigger deal. A lot of us have to hold the iPhone awkwardly to get service. Fact.
