Actually, I think a good part of the problem is that Apple tested the new iPhone in the "real world" using a case that disguised it as an older iPhone 3GS, hence, during the "real world" testing, the new iPhone 4 didn't exhibit the antenna problem because the testers (like the engineer who left his prototype iPhone in a Redwood City bar) never used the new iPhone without a case attached to it. - Peter
