The iPhone “antennagate” situation may have exhausted itself, but I’ll be dammed if this concept decal isn’t funny. If iPhone Band-Aids can become a real product, why not this?

I have an iPhone 4 and, to be quite honest, the problem with the antenna isn’t that big of a deal. The media has basically made the public paranoid about the whole thing, which prompted Apple to offer customers free bumpers and cases.
Bulky cases aren’t for me though, and I’ve been happy with GelaSkins so far, but an even simpler (and more humorous) solution is simply to put a Band-Aid on it…so to speak. Antenn-Aid makes the iPhone’s boo boo all better.
Just place it over the left corner of the phone and signal performance should be improved (the product page doesn’t guarantee results). No worries though, I suppose you could just go into your medicine cabinet and put on a real Band-Aid and achieve the same effect.

Apple is planning to address the iPhone 4 reception problems in a press conference tomorrow, so some sort of permanent solution is likely on the way.
For that reason, skinning your iPhone with GelaSkins to fix the problem could be moot at this point (unless you are interested in some stylish scratch protection), but it does work…mostly.
This dummy satellite dish is intended to give your plain old antenna the “stylish look” that’s so popular with the RV drivers these days. Do you have a TV in there? Are you contacting aliens from the inside of your 88′ Honda Accord? It keeps people guessing, that’s for sure.
