CITY VIEWS: DO THE RECEPTION PROBLEMS WITH THE NEW IPHONE PUT YOU OFF?
DUNCAN GOULD | LLOYD’S REGISTER
“It’s fine as they have admitted their mistake. These things happen. I don’t have an iPhone myself, but my wife has one and I find it’s a very good phone. I’m not surprised that they have made a big deal out of correcting the problem, as they are very publicity conscious.”
RICHARD MOTTRAM | BRIT INSURANCE
“I think it’s a disaster. I wouldn’t buy an iPhone because it doesn’t work as a concept. It’s just a boys’ toy and is useless for businesses. Steve Jobs must be mad if he thinks giving away free covers is going to solve the problems with the phone.”
STEVE JUDGE | ORACLE
“Just doling out covers for faulty phones is not enough. I would like to see them repaired. My daughter has gone through several iPods as they are susceptible to water damage. But generally their products are very good, and I would consider buying them in the future.”
