With the arrival of the Verizon iPhone the old stories of the "Death Grip" are coming back.

The phone, just like the GSM iPhone 4 and iPhone 3GS before it, have the same issue when tightly held in a particular way with both hands or as much as possible with one hand.

Here is want it boils down too:

Radio waves are waves, just like light waves (debatable) and sound waves.

When you cover your phone, any phone as much as possible with two hands.

IT'S GOING TO STOP THE WAVES OF ENERGY HITTING THE PHONE.

Why?

BECAUSE YOU HAVE A MEATY HAND SHIELD IN THE WAY.

Try this little experement at home.

Carefully, read the entire proceedre, you may end up permanently blind if only followed half way!

1. Take a few seconds to observe the world around you.

2. Place both hands over your face, taking great care to ensure that both eyes are covered entirely by hand.

3. Attrempt to observe the world around you again. 

4. Remove your hands from your face.

Notice how it's much harder for the waves of light to reach your eye when your hand is in the way.

Now i'm sure that medical science is aware of the problem and are striving forward, trying to reach a solution for this terrible afflicting issue just as Apple are working on preventing a little thing like the laws of nature from getting in their way to.

Luckily I have a solution, and I think it's explained best with an old "Doctor, Doctor" joke.

Man: Doctor, Doctor! It hurts when I do this! (The man hops on his toes while kicking himself in the arse)

Doctor: Don't do it then.
