Jobs is not denying that there's a reception problem, but he says that all smartphones have that problem. I don't think this is the response that people are looking for. Meanwhile, the Droid X is sold out.

Senh: I wonder if they'll finally admit that the antenna was faulty and do a recall. There previous two excuses aren't cutting it (software bug and holding the phone differently). They're having a press conference, so maybe they'll finally admit the truth. This phone is just cursed. First, there were all those leaks, and now this. Google must be smiling.
