There is quite a bit of Internet chatter about Apple's (AAPL) new iPhone 4. Unfortunately for the tech company, a good deal of it is negative. There is a problem with reception for the iPhone, a problem that stems from touching "a spot" on the lower left side of the phone. This problem caused Consumer Reports to say that it "can't recommend the iPhone 4." On July 2, Apple tried to explain that the problem was not the antenna, but that it was a calculation mistake that makes it appear that there were two more bars of reception -- seriously. Apple did offer to fix the problem with a free software update (available in a "few weeks") for the iPhone 4, 3, and 3GS. iphone 3gs posts

And witness early pre-orders of the iPhone 4, debuting in the U.S. on June 24. First, anxious shoppers crashed AT&T, Inc.'s (T) shopping server in the wee hours of Wednesday morning. AT&T has now suspended advance orders indefinitely. And still, the number of pre-orders for the iPhone 4 were 10 times higher than orders for the 3GS last year. If you weren't one of the lucky ones to order through Apple or AT&T while they still had existing inventory, you'll be waiting until the next shipment, expected to be before July 2.
