ColorWare iPhone 4 Paint Job Might Help Prevent Grip of Death

[javajolt]

ColorWare iPhone™ 4

The guys at ColorWare will take pretty much any gadget under the sun and dip it into a couple of cans of Pantone-coded paint for you. No surprise, then, that they’re now applying their multi-chromatic treatment to the iPhone 4.

Like usual, you just pick out a color scheme, write a check for $250, send them your phone and wait for them to send it back to you, as prettily painted as a surfer girl’s toe nails.

However, what makes the ColorWare treatment more interesting this time around is that a coat of paint on the antenna might be just enough to thwart the iPhone 4’s infamous ” grip of death” reception issues.

ColorWare’s not promising anything just yet, but they are testing their latest iPhone 4 coloring process in the lab to see if it has measurable effect on reception. Either way, this might be the first ColorWare paintjob that transcends the decorative for the prophylactic.
