Samsung's reply to Steve Jobs
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.
Nokia reply to Steve Jobs:
Nokia followed up the press conference by issues their own statement regarding this issue:
Antenna design is a complex subject and has been a core competence at Nokia for decades, across hundreds of phone models. Nokia was the pioneer in internal antennas; the Nokia 8810, launched in 1998, was the first commercial phone with this feature.
Nokia has invested thousands of man hours in studying human behavior, including how people hold their phones for calls, music playing, web browsing and so on. As you would expect from a company focused on connecting people, we prioritize antenna performance over physical design if they are ever in conflict.
In general, antenna performance of a mobile device/phone may be affected with a tight grip, depending on how the device is held. That’s why Nokia designs our phones to ensure acceptable performance in all real life cases, for example when the phone is held in either hand. Nokia has invested thousands of man hours in studying how people hold their phones and allows for this in designs, for example by having antennas both at the top and bottom of the phone and by careful selection of materials and their use in the mechanical design.

I have left Nokia N900 for the iphone 4 and that's the best decision I have ever made regarding any smartphones. Nokia is still in the past compared to the iphone 4. For me it is all about apps which the best Nokia (N900) could not even come close. When it comes to apps the N900 is a big joke which has cost me, so I had to jump ship and could not be happier.

Another fine piece of engineering by Apple apart from the signal problem.
But they still need to produce a better battery as it drains so quickly.
