While the company does not have any specific iPhone 4 cases or accessories listed on their website, they do urge customers to...

Apple has launched their free case program for the iPhone 4. As many remember, on July 16 Apple held an iPhone 4 press conference addressing some of the reception issues of the iPhone 4.

Yes, this is sourced from Engadget. Yes, Blogs are beating a dead horse on the 'Antenna Issue'. But honestly, this is too funny not to post.
