After the Apple Conference, it was about time for the respond of the companies affected by Apple's statements from company's press conference that took part last Friday. Well, here is what these companies has Commented Officially on the Apple State of their own phones Antennas One-ByOne:

While the South Koreans have no official statement about the Antennagate, a Samsung spokesman did answer some questions concerning it."The antenna is located at the bottom of the Omnia 2 phone, while iPhone's antenna is on the lower left side of the device. Our design keeps the distance between a hand and an antenna," Shin Young-joo said.

"We have fully conducted field tests before the rollout of smartphones. Reception problems have not happened so far, and there is no room for such problems to happen in the future,"

As for Motorola, Sanjay Jha, the company's co-CEO, responded that "consumers don't like being told how to hold the phone ... It is disingenuous to suggest that all phones perform equally". He also added that unlike Apple, Motorola avoids placing the antennas on the outside of their phones since that could cause reception issues.

HTC when asked about the number of complaints coming from HTC Droid Eric customers, the company's global PR and online community manager, Eric Lin, said that only 0.016 percent of all HTC users have complained about the Droid Eris and only a few of them have experienced with the device's antenna and signal.

Even if none of Nokia's phone has been mentioned during the conference, the company has a statement concerning that matter as well: "Antenna design is a complex subject and has been a core competence at Nokia for decades, across hundreds of phone models. Nokia was the pioneer in internal antennas; the Nokia 8810, launched in 1998, was the first commercial phone with this feature.

Nokia has invested thousands of man hours in studying human behavior, including how people hold their phones for calls, music playing, web browsing and so on. As you would expect from a company focused on connecting people, we prioritize antenna performance over physical design if they are ever in conflict.

In general, antenna performance of a mobile device/phone may be affected with a tight grip, depending on how the device is held. That's why Nokia designs our phones to ensure acceptable performance in all real life cases, for example when the phone is held in either hand. Nokia has invested thousands of man hours in studying how people hold their phones and allows for this in designs, for example by having antennas both at the top and bottom of the phone and by careful selection of materials and their use in the mechanical design."

The Co-CEOs of Research In Motion (RIM), Mike Lazaridis and Jim Balsillie, share their indignation at Apple's move. It was Apple itself who decided to use this antenna design. So, it should stand behind that decision and deal with it alone and not involve RIM in "Apple's self-made debacle". After all, it isn't the BlackBerries that need a case to maintain proper connectivity. Here is RIM's Co-CEOs whole joint statement:

Apple alleged a press conference today to address troubles with the iPhone 4's antenna.

Admitting that neither he nor his flagship mobile handsets are surefire, Steve Jobs made a 15-minute presentation to the press before fielding questions.

The CEO made a point to show video of other handsets (including the Blackberry Bold 9700 and HTC Droid Eris) revealing the same drop in bars that iPhone consumers have faced.

Citing 22 days of “working our butts off,” Jobs settled that Apple’s topical change in the algorithm that gauges signal strength was part of their solution.

One slide on the presentation read “phones aren’t perfect.” He reported that only 0.55% of iPhone consumers called Apple to report the crisis, and that only 1.7% of patrons returned early units to AT&T, as compared to the iPhone 3GS’s 6.0%.

Apple is remedying the state of affairs by providing a free case to all iPhone clients through September 30. iPhone holders will be able to pertain for a case on Apple’s website. These comprise both Apple’s bumper cases in addition to a few others, which were not exposed. Those who are still unhappy can return their iPhone 4 for a full refund in the next 30 days.

That was one hell of an odd press conference on Friday. Typical Apple. Instead of just admitting its faults Apple decided to point a finger at the other mobile phone manufacturers and accuse them of selling devices with bad signal reception. And here comes their response!

Apple admitted that the iPhone 4 isn't perfect (we already knew that… there isn't such a thing like a perfect phone) and then the moment was ruined by a series of images and videos demonstrating that the iPhone 4 wasn't the only one with reception issues. How NOT cool is that?

Apple showed that RIM's BlackBerry Bold 9700 as well as the HTC Droid Eris and the Samsung Omnia II are affected by that problem, too, and that you can make their signal strength bars go down by just holding the phone in a particular way.

Apple Started the "Antenna wars" and the Other Companies (RIM, HTC , Nokia, Samsung and Motorola ) won't just stood still but they'll speak and response to apple statement on the antenna gate conference on 16/7 Friday and this will start a War between these big Companies to prove that their own phones aren't bad like Apple Has Showed the users!

If you want to check out the Apple iPad in action before spending the thick end of 500 US dollars on it, please head to the company website right away. Apple has uploaded a host of guided video tours of their latest device that demonstrate most aspects of its interface in detail. people thinks that iPad is just a way that apple can make money…others just says why I would buy a Huge iPhone…I am with you its Big to carry around its gonna take both hands.

Here are 5 Reasons you should buy an (iPad) :

1. The iPad is very thin & you’ll not notice its Weight when holding it.


2. The iPad can fit Easy in your Bag with your books (if you are a student) and you can use it to view E-books in its Big Screen instead of the mobile phone.


3. The iPad is so cool to use with the iPhone OS 4 and its big Screen and has a battery that last up  to 10 hours with the Wifi ON.


4. The iPad is better than a Netbook if you want a device that does your needs without carrying your heavy Notebook with you all the time.


5. The iPad has So many accessories like a leather carry and a Wireless keyboard.

So that’s All…If you are convince with these Reasons just go and buy one the iPad is Available in two versions (Wifi) & (Wifi + 3G) and with various Memory Accept (16GB, 32GB & 64GB). Apple iPad is now available on pre-order and if you really, really want to be among the first ones to have it, you might wanna order it right now!

Head for the Apple Store to Pre-order one

As an explanation from Apple for the poor signal of the iphone 4 and the antenna issue we all know bout. apple has showed this video in her press conference to make people know that /not only apple have this problem but HTC, samsung & blackberry as well. The video above shows the antenna performance of (iPhone 4 vs HTC Droid vs BlackBerry Samsung vs iPhone 3GS) ALL together so watch the video and see who is the slowest phone to lose signal (it will be the iPhone 4G).

Here are Photos/Pictures of my iPhone DSLR Prototype 1.0 This is my first attempt at putting together an iPhone DSLR. You might ask why pair an iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, or iPhone 4 with a DSLR lens? Why not!

As we know Apple has updated its iPhone 4 camera and now has 5-megapixels still frames, HD video, and an LED flash. Put that together with a DSLR lens, and you’ve got a device that can shoot amazing images/video with SLR lenses, edit them on the fly, and share them on the internet all in one device.

Mount:
The mount currently fits only Canon EF lenses. Eventually, with the right adaptors, I should be able to fit Canon FD lenses, Nikon lenses, and M42 lenses.

Housing:
The housing is a solid piece of anodized billet aluminum. It weigths about 1.1 lbs, has two handle grips, and 4 x 1/4″-20 female threaded mounting holes so you can actually screw this thing into a standard tripod. The housing can fit any iPhone 3G, iPhone 3GS, or iPhone 4.

The white version of the iPhone 4 isn't available just yet but its first luxury edition has already surfaced. Covered with a handful of shiny diamonds, only fifty of those will be made so you better hurry up if you want to get one.

The black version of the Apple iPhone 4 has been available for a week or two now and already got its exclusive edition thanks to Gresso, but now it's the white one's turn to get the same treatment. The unimaginatively named iPhone 4 Diamond Edition is delivered by luxury designer Stuart Hughes.

The iPhone 4 Diamond Edition frame and its solid platinum Apple logo at the back are encrusted with a total of approximately 6.5 carats of diamonds. Underneath you'll find yet another unlocked iPhone 4 32GB in white.

Along with the phone itself you'll also get a thin ostrich foot leather wallet large enough to accommodate up to 4 credit cards. Only 50 units of the iPhone 4 Diamond Edition will be produced and sold worldwide and each will cost 13 000 GBP (around 20 000 US dollars). Expensive! haa ??

It's not surprising that after Apple finished explaining the iPhone 4 antenna issues to the press today, the company wanted to go one step further and say "yes, actually, we do test the hell out of these phones before we release them to the public." Though Steve Jobs went over the lengthy and intensive kinds of radio evaluation that goes on at Apple's headquarters, it didn't seem to be enough for the folks in Cupertino. And that, we suspect, is why we were invited (along with a small group of other journalists) to take a brief tour of Apple's Infinite Loop labs. Though we weren't allowed to shoot video or take pictures, we can tell you about what we did -- and what we didn't -- see and hear behind closed doors. 

After Jobs wrapped the nearly hour and a half presentation, we were pulled aside by Apple PR and ushered through the center of the Infinite Loop campus -- a new experience for us, since we'd never been deeper than one of the company's small theaters. Once all the attendees had been gathered (folks like Jason Snell from Macworld, Daring Fireball's John Gruber, and a smattering of mainstream journalists from places such as Wired, USA Today and the New York Times), we were led further into the campus (and eventually across a street) into a separate building. After a series of double doors and long, anonymous hallways, we entered a large, warehouse-like lab cluttered with test equipment amid large tables covered in mysterious black cloth (and no, we couldn't look under the cloth). Awaiting us was Phil Schiller, Greg Joswiak, Bob Mansfield, and engineer Ruben Caballero. The latter employee has become a somewhat controversial figure over the last few days, as he was alleged to have known about and communicated concerns over the new antenna design (according to a Bloomberg article which Jobs lambasted as a "crock" during today's press conference). Oh, and there was also an assortment of PR folks, lest the nosey journalists get out of line and require a tasing.

Apple just finished off its press conference dedicated on the iPhone 4 reception issues leaving us quite puzzled, to say the least. At one point Steve Jobs was saying that every phone has a weak spot, then he claimed everybody makes mistakes but Apple is quick to fix theirs so that's why they have loyal users. Apple wants its users happy and since everyone cries for free cases, they will give away free cases. But not because they've messed up, but only because "they loves their users".

How about that? Apparently the problem with the iPhone 4 antenna had been blown way out of proportion by the "bad press". The iPhone 4 reputation obviously has been ruined by its incorrect signal representation (now fixed in today's 4.0.1 update) and the easily accessible weak spot.

"There is no perfect phone." - says Apple's CEO, Steve Jobs. This may very well be true, but we never heard of another phone dropping calls when held in the most natural of ways.

  
The iPhone 4 antenna issues were the press conference main topic

Afterwards they treated us to several slides, suggesting that only a minor portion of users were troubled by the iPhone 4 flawed antenna design.

 
According to Apple, the iPhone 4 issues are only troubling a small percentage of its users

Okay, let’s explain how this works – when it’s a design issue, it means that EVERY user will have it. Of course those lucky enough to live in an area with very strong signal will be less affected by it, but that’s a whole different story.

Obviously only about 0.5 percent of all customers complained directly to Apple about reception issues. But how about that everyone who opened a tech site for the past two weeks (or knew a guy who did) was perfectly aware what was going on and knew that this call will do them no good.

At least Apple decided to do the decent thing and give a free case to every iPhone 4 user. Plus they are willing to waive the restocking fee for everyone who wants to return the handset in the next 30 days. Just bear in mind that it’s not the Bumpers that Apple is giving away but some other type of cases by another manufacturer. User will even have some kind of choice.

Every iPhone 4 user is eligible to receive a free case or a full refund

Steve Jobs also mentioned the other big issue with the iPhone 4 – its faulty proximity sensor. He promises they are already working on a fix for that and it will be coming with a future software update. Not much of a consolation really, as proximity sensor problems, unlike antenna issues have been troubling even people in areas with great coverage.

 
The proximity sensor is the next thing they are going to fix on the iPhone 4

Now you can bet that being treated like fools and being told that there is no problem when it’s pretty clear that a problem exists is not our favorite thing. Still we cannot see Apple doing much better than this – you didn’t really expect them to recall all phones and replace them at an indefinite time in the future when they come up with a better design, did you?

So that’s about it for now, we’ll keep you posted when we get more info about those promised cases. And of course we will continue hoping that Apple come up with a solution and fix the problem in some future batch of handsets.

P.S. Steve Jobs confirmed they're right on track with the next wave of iPhone availability scheduled for the 30 July. 17 more countries will get the iPhone 4 then. Plus the white iPhone 4 is expected to ship in the end of July too.
