You are holding your iPhone 4 the wrong way, you know!

25 June, 2010
Yesterday's iPhone 4 launch was full of surprises - dead-on-arrival, yellow spots or white dots on the screen, lost reception signal and a bunch of happy users. But while yellow spots will likely disappear...

          All 4 iPhone models has only one good feature touch screen software else they all are still lacking basic phone features. So say no to iPhone and save some money friends we are still coming out of recession. Don't waste your money like this.

            Anonymous, 25 Jun 2010Today is the day that apple fan having a hard time showing ... moreToday is this day :
            Long lines persist for the iPhone 4 a full day after its official launch day. The photo above was taken at the Regent Street Apple Store in London this morning.

            Meanwhile, we've heard that the second round of iPhone pre-orders have begun shipping ahead of schedule. Customers who ordered the iPhone 4 from Apple after the initial batch sold out were originally quoted a July 2nd ship date, but some of those customers have now started receiving shipping notifications.

            The continued strong demand bolsters analysts' recent estimates of blockbuster opening weekend sales. Piper Jaffray's Gene Munster estimated yesterday that Apple will move 1.0-1.5 million iPhone over the first three days of availability. Oppenheimer's Yair Reiner followed up with a more bullish claim of as many as 1.5 million iPhones sold on the first day alone, presumably including those that shipped to customers a day or two early.

            Apple reported after last year's launch weekend for the iPhone 3GS that it had sold "over one million" units in the first three days of availability. Given claims of substantially increased pre-order increase over last year and reports of Apple's longest lines ever for launch day sales, it certainly seems likely that the company will eclipse last year's performance.

Apple shares are around $268 and Microsoft are around $25 yet Microsoft is stil ahead in market value. And you can't compare shares with RIM or Nokia who are mainly phone companies while Apple is more than just a phone company.

                                Anonymous, 25 Jun 2010To the one who made the comment about apples share falling ... moreKeep in mind that APPLE is second only to EXXON in market capitalization and making every quarter steadily PROFITS in excess of $ 2 billion , particularly on the Iphone and Ipad because of the superiority in mobile internet and communication exactly where Rimm and Nokia are losing out.
                                Apple got to be so big and profitable in the past three years because of the Iphone project, and with Iphone4 they will sell about 100 million pieces regardless of the antenna non issue, the market understands that very clearly.

                                  This is odd. I tried an iphone 4.0 today, and attempted to muffle the signal with two hands, but there was no change. Is this a fault on a certain batch?

                                  Despite this, the screen was AMAZING to look at. I couldn't take my eyes off it, and the build quality as perfect. A little heavy for my liking though. The OS was VERY responsive, and facetime was a bit "meh", but then on my N95 I only ever used video calls twice in the two years I had the phone (once for fun, and the second when I saw something I had to share there and then)

                                  The camera is surprisingly efficient in low light, but isn't that amazing. It's simply now functional. I didn't get a chance to try HD video.

                                  It looks very good, but I'm not sure 3GS owners will want to upgrade just yet. iOs 4 for the 3GS has taken some of the appeal out of the 4th generation iphone.

                                  Gate's comment was poorly delivered. He should have really stayed quiet. The antenna issue won't ruin iphone sales, but Apple really needs to look at where it should be on the3 device.

The reason why RIMs and Nokias share would fall more than apple is because they're basically phone companies. And that small % is prob more millions lost than RIM or Nokia.
