Best Buy offers free Side Shield, Apple looks into iOS 4 issues on iPhone 3G, Droid X ad pokes fun at antenna woes

July 29th, 2010 | Category: iPhone

Best Buy Mobile has announced that anyone who buys or previously purchased an iPhone 4 from the Best Buy Mobile store will get a free Zagg Side Shield. The Side Shield is the invisibleSHIELD film from Zagg and prevents the infamous antenna issues.

According to the WSJ Apple is conducting a probe into the issues iPhone 3G users are seeing with iOS 4 on the smartphone.

The main complaint is slow operation after the install.

The woes of iPhone 4 users and the antenna design on the new smartphone are legendary at that point. Motorola has taken the rare misstep by Apple and turned it into a chance to poke fun at the iPhone 4 with a new ad leading with a tag line “No Jacket needed.”
