Testing a 'known good' iPhone 3G proves what?

Your IT - Mobility

Wiselgren has invited readers in Gothenburg with iPhone 3G connection issues to contact her with a view to further testing. It'll be interesting to see whether those handsets fail Bluetest's evaluation.

Some owners reported improved performance after installing the iPhone 2.0.2 software - presumably they were affected by the software issue that Apple admitted (without further explanation), not the hypothesised antenna alignment problem or the alleged issues with the Infineon chip uses in the iPhone.

But neither explanation applies to those who say their iPhone 3G works properly with a 3G carrier in one country but not another.

No single theory advanced so far seems to provide a comprehensive explanation for the pattern of poor performance being reported by iPhone 3G owners. About the only thing you can say for sure is that there is no fundamental issue that prevents the handset from working well, otherwise nobody would be getting good performance.

Clearly, there are still more revelations to come in the iPhone 3G saga.
