Nokia takes on Apple for antenna problems

Finnish handset manufacturer Nokia has publically criticised Apple for its response to the iPhone 4 antenna issues, releasing a tutorial on how to hold a phone.

The sarcastic response targets comments made by Apple chief executive Steve Jobs, who responded to an antenna complaint by telling the customer to hold the iPhone in a different way.

“One of the main things we’ve found about the one billion-plus Nokia devices that are in use today is that when making a phone call, people generally tend to hold their phone like a… well, like a phone,” the guide says.

“Of course, feel free to ignore all of the above because realistically, you’re free to hold your Nokia device any way you like. And you won’t suffer any signal loss. Cool, huh?”
