UPDATE: Steve Jobs: iPhone 4 may be recalled (?)

(Update 0025hrs 28061020) As it turns out the Daily Mail has removed the news piece without any explanation. the tweet the article referred to to belongs to one of the many fake Steve Jobs Twitter account out there. In this case, it was from ceoSteveJobs.

But with unhappy customers growing in numbers by the day, can Apple afford not to recall the flawed iPhone 4?

(Update 0126hrs 28061020) Another short update. Found found a screencap of the earlier report on Flickr.

We may have to recall the new iPhone. This I did not expect.

Steve Jobs revealed via Twitter that the recently launched iPhone 4 may be recalled barely a week into its debut, UK’s Daily Mail Online reported.

The is probably the first time we’ve heard Apple recall a product and if it is indeed true, this would definitely be the first time an iPhone is being recalled.

The culprit? You’ve guessed it, the externally antenna that we’ve talking about here, here and here.

Could this mean that there will be delays for subsequent shipments of the iPhone 4 to other countries? Most likely. Would it affect sales of the iPhone 4? Probably but maybe not.
