I've been watching this unfold over the last week or so and I think
Apple has hit the point where you can't have your cake and eat it too.
New gadgets are fine, but there is a limit on cell phone reception.
It isn't magic but people tend to think it is. I have cell phones all
over the place since my wife is a cell phone addict where I could care
less. There are dead zones depending on who you have signed up with. I
found this painfully true when I was on a bicycle ride in the mountains
and two women were talking with a tower in plain sight. My phone would
not connect since it was a propriety kind of thing. I think you can dial
911 and force a connection, but that is about it.

But the iPhone 4 doesn't have -gasp!- a dial.

What WERE they thinking?
