An engineer experienced with electromagnetic issues like those now affecting Apple’s iPhone 4 says that the tests performed by Consumer Reports were scientifically flawed.
In response to the iPhone 4 technical findings reported by the consumer buying advice group, engineer Bob Egan observed on his own site that “Consumer Reports’ [radio frequency] engineers should know better than to think they can run an engineering grade test for an issue like this in a shielded room. And certainly not one with people in it.”
