It appears that Apple may be taking steps to do something about the iPhone 4 antenna problem, even though very slowly, and in as much as they are hiring iPhone antenna engineers, which one would have presumed they would already have anyway.

However perhaps not as an article over on Engadget by Thomas Ricker, reports that Apple has posted three job listing asking for iPhone and iPad antenna engineers which can “Define and implement antenna system architecture to optimise the radiation performance for wireless portable devices.”

According to the article the Apple job posting were posted back on the 23rd of July which is roughly the same time the iPhone 4 antenna problem was reported.

Of course these tree job listings could be nothing to do with the iPhone 4 antenna problem, but wouldn’t it just seem too much of a coincidence that Apple is hiring as soon as the iPhone 4 issues came about.
