I love how Consumer Reports calls iPhone 4 the best phone on the market then says they can't recommend buying it. Glad I'm not in Apple PR.

Exactly. The defect is no big deal; devices are rarely perfect the first try. Apple's response, on the other hand, is a problem. Rather than admit and address the problem, they instead insist it doesn't exist for fear of popping the Steve Jobs Reality Distortion Field bubble. All they have to do is give away the bumpers for free to affected customers. Then again, it's kind of suspicious that the first time ever that Apple has decided to make a case for the iPhone, it's for a version that requires a case to get the best reception and it's a case that is designed specifically to only cover the problem antenna. I'm not saying it was intentional, just that it was probably intentional.
