What Antenna Issues?
July 26, 2010
Apple may be giving away free Bumpers, but the list of entrepreneurs attempting to make a buck on the iPhone 4 antenna problem continues to grow.
Fusion of Ideas has announced its “Goodbye Dropped-Bar Syndrome” promotion. The company produces side bezel pieces for the iPhone 4 which normally sell for $10. For a limited time, it's offering the pieces for absolutely NOTHING (you pay $1.50 shipping). Of course, there is a small catch: these pieces are part of the company’s larger “Full-Body Kit” for the iPhone 4. These sell for $35. Naturally, they hope that consumers buy the entire kit once they enter the store. I will say this: they look amazing! Then you have Hifi3D, which is offering consumers an “Antenn-aid” which promises to make Apple’s boo-boo “all better.” Coming in six different colors ranging from simple gray to light purple, “Antenn-aids” are Band-Aids for your iPhone 4. These look very cool and sell for $4.99 for a pack of six. And finally, the funniest of all “antenna busters” is the “End Call” sticker. You simply place the sticker on the bottom-left part of your iPhone 4 and watch your antenna issues go away! A set of four sells for just $4.00 and is available at Etsy.
