Ok, so it's obvious there's a hardware problem with the phone regarding the antennae and how holding it a certain way can affect the signal. We all know this. However, just how many of the 2+ million users are actually having this problem? As much as I would love to stare at this glorious piece of industrial design, I'm not dumb enough to go without a case/bumper. I would wager that no less than 80% of users are the same way. Everyone else is just an idiot. So now we have 20% of the userbase that MAY get this problem. I say MAY because there are plenty of people who, like myself, have really good service where they go - better in fact thanks to the phone's design - and don't have issues with the death grip. Let's say that knocks another 5% or so. Now we're at 15% who have the issue.
To those remaining few whining shits complaining about your phone...
GET A FUCKING CASE! YOU SHOULD HAVE ONE ANYWAY!
Ok, maybe you don't want a case. That's fine. When it comes down to it, you shouldn't be responsible for 'fixing' something you bought that was already broken. But you should still have one, anyway! Have you not seen the horrific images of shattered iPhones? Those images are just as impactful as starving children in Africa and mistreated animals in ASPCA commercials. Don't deny it. You know it's true. So, if you don't want a case, what should Apple do? Well, obviously, they should do the right thing! But just what is the right thing? A recall? Free bumpers? Hugs?
I have a feeling Apple will announce an update to the hardware and, possibly, a recall during their Friday iPhone conference. Personally, I don't really care since I don't have any issues, but, for those that do, I just hope Apple comes up with a solution that works so we can move on from this shit and save up for the next ubergizmadget from Cupertino.
