Free Case (Bumpers) For iPhone 4 Owners Through September 30

It has been no secret that the iPhone 4 has an antenna issue. This noise level for the issue has risen considerably in the last few weeks and Apple decided to hold a press conference about it today to get the news out that it is not only their problem. According to Jobs, all smartphones have this issue, and it is not only Apple. Though that does not really provide a solution to those that are getting dropped calls and/or are seeing lower data rates, a free case does. Here are the details:

• If you have an iPhone 4, you can get a free bumper from Apple.
‚Ä¢ If you want another case‚Äîor Apple’s bumpers are out of stock‚Äîyou can pick another one from some options.
• If you already bought another case, you get a refund on that.
‚Ä¢ The offer applies until September 30; at which time apple will “re-examine” the situation

I guess this works for now. I wonder if there will be a long term solution? Or maybe this is their long term solution. [Engadget]
