It looks like the iPhone 4 "death grip" drama is coming to a head: News
broke this afternoon that Apple will be holding a press conference this
Friday to discuss the iPhone 4.

In typical Apple fashion, the company didn't give too much detail about
what would be discussed at Friday's press conference, except that it
would be about Apple's flagship smartphone, but given the press coverage
surrounding the so-called "death grip," there's more than a good chance
that Apple will be tackling this issue head-on.

Needless to say, it's hard to tell as yet what will come out of this
press conference. Earlier this week, Consumer Reports said that it
couldn't recommend the iPhone, despite the fact that it took the top
spot in its rankings. Some see a recall as "inevitable, while others
have suggested that Apple should give away free Bumper cases to iPhone 4
owners instead. Meanwhile, others have experienced glitches with the
iPhone 4 proximity sensor.
