eat that RIM job

about time

Its to bad that phone isnt out yet. Looks like it will finally provide a answer to the iPhone. If it was out I might buy it. To bad its not, I'll be getting the iPhone4 in a couple weeks and will be locked in for 3 years.

This whole "death grip" issue for every cellphone<

is getting too much publicity. Signal attenuation always existed for many cellphones and it won't disappear any time soon. Now every cellphone will be squeezed to death like a sponge to see how many bars you can make it drop. It's mainly a useless test. Learn to alter your grip.

Hahahahahahahah

So much for being "a world leader in antenna design". Suck it RIM!!!!

They really

shouldn't hold the phone that way.........

RIM will get a pass...

Look, we all know that RIM will get a pass on this, along with all the other phones that exhibit the so-called death grip. We just need to live it. Those who have become obsessed over antennagate will not be mollified by new evidence. They have invested their rage in this issue and nothing will change their minds. They're locked in to their positions.

The issue is already starting to fade from the headlines. Just about everybody has had their say on the matter. There's not many more articles the tech media can come up with one way or the other. The die-hards will continue to rant away on forums, making snarky, sarcastic comments about the issue but they've always been background noise, something forum denizens have learned to live with.

Not may show, DOES SHOW!!! Free cases from Rim!

Not may show, DOESS SHOW!!!. Free cases from Rim!!!
Come on Rim, get with it!
We want to know why your phones signal drops!
Quick call out the F.B.I.!
Hey Rim why haven't you responded yet! Your not fast enough with an answer.
Don't deny it, you have the same issue, where's your answer!
You've been in the phone business for 20 years why don't you have and answer for this problem?

This is the kind of stupidity that has gone on with Apple so Rim should also answer up as they are no better than Apple, HTC, Nokia, Samsung and a long list of others which is probably every phone on the market today.

Noting New Here...

All phones do this to an extent even your 90s Motorola Razer. If you ever pull the phone away from your head fast most of the time you see it raise a bar depending if it was on a threshold or not.

The difference is that the iPhone looses more signal (not bars necessarily) to the fact that it drops calls. By Blackberry, never drops a call even when I have had 0 bars before.

videos removed???

Interestingly it now says the videos were removed due to terms of use violation. I wonder if said violation is actually RIM using any method at their disposal (legal or not) to get the videos out of the public eye.

Research In Motion

RIM already weighed in. Now let this world leader in antenna design bear that weight.

Lesson: Never confuse Research In Motion with research in action.

HTC brain cancer

It's a bit off topic, but in HTC's (non-response) response to Apple's claim that other manufacturers phones do this, they point out that "this is one reason why they put their antennas at the top of the handset instead of at the bottom," like everyone else does.

The reason the antenna is at the bottom of every other cellphone is because if it's at the top it's right next to your brain and is basically heating up your grey matter with radiation all day long. This is a really, really unsafe design.

Why is everyone so upset about Apples death grip issue but giving HTC a pass on a design that wouldn't even be approved in Europe it's so unsafe?
