If you read BusinessWeek then you’ve no doubt heard about that the problems behind 3G connection issues have been discovered. For anyone having troubles connecting through 3G, you can blame your Infineon chipset for the problems.

While people have differing opinion on why the Infineon chipset is acting up, Apple has already said how they plan to fix it. There is a software update which according to sources should be coming at the end of September. Many believe that Apple for some reason set the software settings of 3G too low and isn’t capturing the full potential of the connection.

Of course there are others who believe that the 3G connection issues are simply a hardware problem. If this turns out to be the case, then the fix is much more complicated than just a software update. If Apple chooses to acknowledge the problem then this could call for some kind of hardware recall.
