Send in the clowns: Jeremy Clarkson, Britain’s alpha dog of all things auto-related, sucker punched the iPhone 4  on his uber-popular TV show “Top Gear.”

He’s not even particularly funny, but the point is the “death-grip” reception issue has become so widely known that it’s good for a chuck-let on a mainstream TV show. (On this side of the pond, David Letterman took a pot shot at Apple a few weeks ago.)

Not so good for Apple’s “it just works” selling point and one more sign that the Cupertino company has a PR debacle on its hands, however you hold it.
