This antennagate issue has acquired so much attention that if people had used this precious time doing something more productive, they'd have been a happier soul.
To this, RIM and Nokia have aptly replied to Apple, declaring war. Only Samsung were left. Now they're not.
Samsung have joined in the attack and have rejected Apple's claims that Samsung's Omnia 2 has antenna issues, though in a far more polite manner.
The antenna is located at the bottom of the Omnia 2 phone, while iPhone's antenna is on the lower left side of the device. Our design keeps the distance between a hand and an antenna. We have fully conducted field tests before the rollout of smartphones. Reception problems have not happened so far, and there is no room for such problems to happen in the future.
But why were they so polite? Quoting Engadget here:
Why is Samsung being rather more polite? Because it's full of really nice people? Or, is it because the iPhone 4 is stuffed with Samsung memory chips? We'll let your level of cynicism be your guide here.
