Good old Steve Jobs
They just workDesign is not just what it looks like and feels like. Design is how it works.Sometimes when you innovate, you make mistakes. It is best to admit them quickly, and get on with improving your other innovations.

I'm sure that most of their userbase haven't got a scooby of whats going on![]()
Don't be stupid; they can just look it up on the internet with iPhone safar... Oh.
Maybe not about the press conference, but in a quick straw poll of people I know with them, _every_ _single_ _one_ had either dropped calls because of the antenna thing or muted/hung up on someone with their face because of the proximity sensor issue. Many weren't even aware there were known problems - they tended to think they must have done something wrong or the network was being dodgy.
They're hoping for a proper fix, not a placatory rubber band.
With almost every product, if there was a problem with the hardware, id want a refund/replacement and not a fix. A software fix, thats fine, but i dont want my new product to inconviencince my life.

To be honest, I think most of them were proximity sensor issues. People are really annoyed about it - holding, muting, hanging up and conferencing people accidentally with their faces is not what they were expecting. It doesn't help that Apple haven't even acknowledged this as a problem as far as I've heard.
Also, it's spoiling the image - my brother's mates are TV/media types, and they're getting pissed off that the default reaction to their new shiny is no longer "oooh, I want one" - it's now "hahaha, have you managed to make a call yet?" or "am I holding it wrong?". Apple desperately need to pull something better than "here's a free bumper" (which IMO totally ruins the look of the phone. Why would you want to buy something that looks that good and make it look like a fairground go-kart?) with their press conference - the phone's only ahead of the competition in "cool", and if that goes, there's much less distance between it and anything else on the market.
