That depends on whether you think Apple is just getting more attention about this problem because they are Apple, or because the iPhone 4 problem is much worse than other handsets.

I dont own an iphone so I cant comment on the quality of the iphone 4, but all the other mac adds seem to be about how macs are better than pcs and about simplicity and about "think differrent". This ad is about "see were no worse than everyone else", while the underlying physics point is valid - why waste ad dollars on communicating your equality with other vendors ?

Because Consumer Reports singled out Apple's iPhone 4 as the only phone with such issue, and presented it as a dealbreaker.
In that situation levelling with others is step up for Apple.
