Motorola Publicly Embarrasses Apple
Posted: 07/28/10

Motorola has slammed Apple with a full page ad in the New York Times mocking Steve Jobs, who pointed the finger at Apple's smartphone competitors during the Apple "antennagate" press conference held on July 16.
Motorola fired back on Wednesday but doesn't mention Apple CEO Jobs' claim that there are antenna issues on many smartphones, including Motorola, RIM and HTC.
Instead, Motorola cleverly advertised their Droid X in a full page ad that clearly states: No Jacket Required in large type.
A nice dig at the death grip antenna issues many complained about with the new iPhone 4, as well as Apple's solution of a free case to fix the problem.
Below the bold heading of the ad states: "At Motorola, we believe a customer shouldn't have to dress up their phone for it work properly. That's why the Droid X comes with a dual antenna design. The kind that allows you to hold the phone anyway you like to make crystal clear calls without a bulky phone jacket."

This is sheer genius. The little bumper that apple is offering looks kind of goofy and very unnecessary so why not exploit it and tell people you don't have to deal with that with Motorola phones. Great Ad!
