Sam Diaz: Is iPhone 4 becoming Apple’s Windows Vista?

iphone 4 cases“The latest word out of Apple HQ is that the iPhone 4 software update that’s on the way won’t do anything to solve that little antenna problem that’s been getting headlines in recent days,” Sam Diaz writes for SeekingAlpha.

“Well, duh,” Diaz writes. “As Adrian Kingsley-Hughes pointed out in a post of his own this morning, the antenna problem on the iPhone 4 isn’t a software issue. It’s a design defect. And his advice is simple: either live with it or return it.”

MacDailyNews Take: Adrian Kingsley-Hughes is a well-known anti-Apple scribbler who delights in overblowing any “issue,” real or concocted, and spinning against Apple. Reading his pieces in hindsight is always good for a laugh. Whatever he purports to be “threats” to Apple have never seemed to hurt Apple’s unit sales or stock price at all.

Diaz continues, “As the iPhone 4 bashing continues, I can’t help but wonder if the folks in Cupertino are getting a little taste of what Redmond must have been feeling when everyone was bashing Windows Vista – stuck between a rock and a hard place because there’s really no quick answer to give iPhone owners. Well, nothing beyond 1) scale down to a previous version, 2) buy from a competitor or 3) wait for the next update.”

MacDailyNews Take: Diaz’s desperation is palpable and laughable.
