We find ourselves at the end of June, soon it’s going to be the beginning of July and we all know what is in store! A new iPhone model is getting ready to be released to customers on, the 24th of June.
Unbelievably enough the iPhone 4 has it’s share of drama surrounding it, some of the issues as early as Apr of 2010. In early Apr, Gizmodo editor Jason Chen bought a then secret iPhone 4 prototype model from a unnamed person for a sum of five thousand dollars. Gizmodo.com held extensive coverage of the iPhone 4 and even was discussed on mainstream reports networks like FoxNews and MSNBC. His house was later raided by the California Rapid Enforcement Allied Computer Team and had his computers seized. The explanation for the raid on his domicile was something to do with industrial espionage; but how could you be guilty of that if all that you are doing is buying something? Youre not stealing it so whats the issue.
Then when the iPhone was ready for pre order via computer, the system stopped working but not before over 600,000 preorders had been registered. Not just that, ATTs systems were victims of security breaches and people were accessing other peoples accounts accidentally, and being able to see and edit other patrons information. Many are reporting that AT&T shops being shut down over the quantity of folks attempting to preorder and the stress of ATTs systems being far too overloaded. Finally, after hours of misunderstanding and inaccuracies, ATT and closed down the pre-order system. Seems like they needed some home computer repair Burnsville for their computer network.
Mashable journalist Sam Axon reported being mugged while standing in a queue for the iPhone earlier today in Chicago. He posted on Twitter the following “I was just mugged while waiting in line for the iPhone 4. Not kidding.” What’s happened to society? Lastly, many reports are available about iPhone 4 hardware problems. Gizmodo.com is reporting the iPhone 4 will drop all service if the case of the phone is squeezed close to the antenna mount on the side of the case. It just so happens that you can make the telephone drop calls by touching to tiny antennas at the same time with your fingertip. The solution is as simple as a tiny piece of scotch tape, or put the telephone in a case. Such a straightforward mend for a five hundred dollars machine but it shouldn’t exist in the first place?
There is also verifiable proof that the screen of the iPhone 4 has issues with yellow pixels, bands and splotches on the screen from ordinary use. Most likely Apple won’t repair the problem for free and will claim that the user damaged the LCD themselves. Honestly, that difficulty should not exist when the pricey product hits the open market. Sony learned that lesson years ago with a huge recall for digital camera repair service to fix the CCD sensor on millions of cameras consumers had previously bought.
Apple has a record of making excellent products, but with the knowledge that the iPhone 4 was going to be as well liked as it is, they really should have invested more in research and development. It’s much simpler to handle design problems before you put item into mass production than it is to handle them after the consumer has bought the item. You don’t want to have to provide millions of buyers with computer virus removal Prior Lake after the fact. Maybe Apple will learn an important lesson from this release. Ondeck Teach
