This is the start of the “fix” for the antenna issue.

A thief stole an iPhone from a woman’s hands in San Francisco. What the thief didn’t know was that the lady was testing real-time tracking software on the device and the police used it to find him 9 minutes later.

LG has announced that it can’t keep up with the demand for screens from Apple for the iPad and iPhone. LG says that it may be Q2 2011 before it can meet the demand.

As well as the touch-sensitivity, LG are apparently also working on a display coating that will reduce or eliminate “finger marking”, which was observed as a significant issue in the Apple prototype.  The OLED iPhone will be joined by a similarly-featured new iPod touch.

The OLED displays are part of a reported $500m deal between Apple and LG for panel production up until 2013.  Apple has previously been rumored to be sourcing multitouch panels for a netbook or slate-style tablet device.
