A number of customers have reported reception problems with the spanking new Apple iPhone 3G handsets, and Business Week has reported that the problem may lie in the phone’s Infineon chip, a theory first put forward by analyst Richard Windsor of Nomura Securities, according to CNET.
At first it was believed that a recall might be necessary, involving replacement of the chipset, but now Apple and Infineon engineers are making their companies happy by saying a software upgrade could fix the problem.
According to the Wall Street Journal, the fix should be available "in the coming weeks," and users will be able to download and install it via iTunes.
