(Los Angeles Times) Apple Inc. said Friday that it was "stunned" to find that its iPhones use a "completely wrong" formula to show how many bars of signal strength they are getting.
Apple said that's the reason behind widespread complaints from users that the latest model, iPhone 4, shows a big drop in signal strength when held in a way that inadvertently blocks the antenna at the bottom of the phone.
That drop seems exaggerated because the phone can wrongly display four or five bars of signal strength when it shouldn't, Apple said.

Integrating complex electronic projects requires industry individuals keep abreast of the latest technological trends.
Some things are important, many ironic, others outright frauds, and a few are just so very wrong. Occasionally the original technological goal and downstream results are in hilarious conflict.
Usually "the latest trends" go back fifty to one hundred years in their development and are only new to the uninformed. In most every case, the ancients have truly stolen our inventions!
As far as we know, this is the only place that collects them and lets you celebrate them for yourself. We'd love to hear from you if you have something we've missed!
