From: John Navas on 15 Jul 2010 16:27 Apple Inc.�s senior antenna expert voiced concern to Chief Executive Officer Steve Jobs in the early design phase of the iPhone 4 that the antenna design could lead to dropped calls, a person familiar with the matter said. Last year, Ruben Caballero, a senior engineer and antenna expert, informed Apple�s management the device�s design may hurt reception, said the person, who is not authorized to speak on Apple�s behalf and asked not to be identified. A carrier partner also raised concerns about the antenna before the device�s June 24 release, according to another person familiar with the situation. .... Steve Dowling, a spokesman for Apple, declined to comment and said he wouldn�t make Caballero available for an interview. Caballero didn�t respond to a call and an e-mail seeking comment.
