This place is not a place of honor… no highly esteemed deed is commemorated here.

Why has @TechCrunch TV invested in a swanky looking studio but not on audio that you can actually hear and understand? is.gd/dw5x8

A Raging, Rambling Debate About Antennagate, Followed By A Fanboy Intervention

I had a theory about today's Apple iPhone 4 Press Extravaganza. Apple was just too eager to get all the press that cares about Apple stuff into one room at the same time on one day's notice. They were either going to (1) get Steve Jobs to hypnotize everyone with a reality distortion field "there is no problem" and have them walk out dazed and confused but with vague warm feelings towards Apple. Or (2) they gathered all the press to one place to simply kill them. It was 50/50 in my book. Apple went with no. 1, probably based on a coin flip. There were two key messages from the event. The first message is that there is no iPhone 4 antenna problem. All phones suffer from this, and the iPhone is a superior phone. The second message is that even though there is no problem Apple is going to give everyone a free bumper that will make the non existent problem go away.
