Oh, they acknowledged it -- by handing out the bumpers and cases.

"Acknowledgement" comes in many forms, some of which might be considered disguises, but we know better.

I didn't expect Steve Jobs to say it out loud, or to empower any of his minions to say it out loud.

The bumper/case distribution program speaks louder than any carefully worded press release, IMO.

I fully agree. It’s always interesting to see companies deny any problem or issue and then their actions speak 180 degrees from their statements.

Too bad so many of their faithful simply take the words - not the deeds - to heart. Actions should speak louder than words!

It will be interesting to see what happens at the end of September. My money is still on a PE/PTFE based coating over the antennas. Fits with the schedule as well, knowing that a product shipped at the end of September needs to start production in early July.
