iPhone 4: the Inauspiciously Named iPhone

iPhone 4 just can't have a break, can it?  Apple has nobody to blame but itself.  Why bother naming the iPhone 4?  Nobody in his right mind would call it a 4.  And look what happened?  Workers were jumping off the roof in abundance, some college kid, in a moment of greedy confusion sold an iPhone 4 prototype and now both he and Gizmodo, the buyer are under police investigation.  The iPhone 4 since its debut is plagued with issues, yellow tinted glass, very breakable back glass, reception issue, proximity sensor issue and now the latest:  Consumer Reports confirms what we already know, iPhone 4 has antenna issues.  Apple doesn't like it and according to one of Engadget's blogposts, Apple is starting to delete support threads that mention the Consumer Reports report.  I think that's low.  Apple considers issues if any are software related as opposed to hardware, i.e. placement of the antenna.
