And LOL @ the claims that a case would improve reception. That makes no sense. If the reception gets hurt when your hand is in the way, then it would get hurt even worse if your hand PLUS a case were in the way. Unless I'm missing something here.

It has to do with conductivity. A rubber case insulates it. I haven't noticed any drops in reception since I put the case on.. 5$ I was going to spend anyway to keep it in nice condition.

You as a human are a conductor. When you bridge the gap between the antenna and its ground you lose call. A case will separate you from these two. It makes perfect sense.

What doesn't make sense is jobs saying its a software issue and not a design flaw.

It's not real multitasking. Apple controls it. It's app driven. Not every app can multitask. Only a few non Apple apps can do it right now. It's multitask bar is like another version of it's home screen for the most part.

So if you've got , say 10 apps, maybe only 5 of them are capable of multi tasking. Thats bullshit.

Here's an article, apple chooses which one it allows to have multitasking.
