I saw this last night:

iPhone 4 video embodies new-tech aesthetic

You're going to wrap your embodiment of a new-tech aesthetic in a cheezy rubber band?

Other than comfort, what problem are these bands supposed to solve?

But, the shape and the look of iPhone are part of its appeal. Now, they’re telling us to cover the phone? Isn’t it like putting burkha or hijab on a woman?

Apple handing out “free rubbers” with it’s iPhone.... might not be a sound PR move.

I think I'll skip the iphone 4 and just wait for them to release a model that does NOT suck with respect to the antenna problem.

Droid X looks better and better each day.

I ordered a new 4 from Radio Shack that will be in any time in the next few days...today I am hearing from Twitter conversations that the reason the problem exists in some phones and not others is a bad production run on initial shipments...one that left a protective coating off the metal band and a bridge piece missing.
Word is that Apple will be offering to repair or replace those phones once “an official solution is arrived at”.
