Wow so my comment about Apple giving ATT a bad name is pretty much true. It wasn't ATT that was the primary cause of dropped calls it was the crappy radio code in the iPhone that caused the issue.

Look out Verizon...when you get the iPhone on your network you'll tick off a lot of people as the iPhone drains the cell tower of power because of its buggy code.

That link has nothing to do with the issue at hand.

This "buggy code" was fixed TWO YEARS AGO! Your claim there will be a problem for Verizon when it gets the iPhone is FUD. As usual.

It might not be a problem on Verizon, since it's a different RF deck and odds are they would need to write different code to control it.

If the extra bars were pasted into the 3G by 2.0.2 to avoid having to recall and rework hardware at that time, they might have royally screwed themselves by admitting to it.

If they had kept their mouth shut about the same screwed up code being in the 3G & 3GS, and simply patched the iphone4 they might have gotten away with it.
