You're certain of this? I can't imagine Consumer Reports is amenable to negotiation on their product reviews. If they are, then that's a scandal in and of itself.

Consumer Reports originally recommended the iPhone4. They retracted the recommendation when they heard about the death grip. They confirmed the problem on the iPhone4, but apparently they didn't check other phones the same way.

Yes. If Apple are in the right, a refusal to re-investigate the issue by Consumer Reports would make them look silly and the review contrived.
