Whoopi iPhone 4 antenna issues. Comedian Whoopie Goldberg was quite serious when she talked about her Apple iPhone 4 problems. Apple is expected to announce another press conference, but it’s too much for Whoopi and her iPhone 4.

IPhone 4 is losing another Apple customer because Whoopie Goldberg has had enough of the problems. As she describes it, she “murdered” the phone by smashing it against the ground. “The people couldn’t get a hold of me… my phone would ring and ring and ring to them, but wouldn’t do anything to me,” she explains, adding that she also had trouble receiving e-mail. “My phone was bad. It wasn’t just that the antenna was bad, it was bad,” Whoopie Goldberg said in a statement.

It sounds as though Whoopi was having more than the average iPhone 4 user problems with the antenna. She may have received a faulty device. It can happen with any phone, from any manufacturer. However, it certainly doesn’t help Apple in the middle of a PR mess that some have already dubbed the “Antennagate” especially being shown on live television.

Whoopi and the other hosts do give praise to other Apple products throughout the segment. Goldberg said , “I loves the iPads.” She originally had the iPhone 3, which she has now gone back to. The iPhone 4 may have left a bad taste in her month, but it did not stop her from going back to her reliable iPhone 3.
