Yes I tried my best to hold it in the left hand, gripping the bottom left corner and nothing! I actually was disappointed at the time because I wanted to show people the problem haha..:)
Again maybe i'm just lucky! And you're right Steve Jobs acted like an ass with the initial "response" by Apple! But now I think Apple have a good solution with the free case and all. I mean, the case solves the problem 100% and in my opinion, people should use a case anyway for safety. For me, at least, I won't be using the case becaue I love the way the iPHone 4 looks.
Mate, I strongly suggest you upgrade from the 3gs to the iphone 4...trust me you won't regret it! Though congrats on your purchase of the Galaxy S, that's a mighty fine phone too! :)

[deleted post]thanks dude, I have 3GS and Galaxy S, and that is why I said always I am not a hater, but I am moving well away from iphone since the statement from steve jobs, regarding the iphone4, teaching people how to hold their phone, that was an insult to all iphone users with some intelligence and pride,
My question is have you tried to hold your phone with left hand and see how your signal like? almost without any expection the signal drops down to zero.
beside many reports drop calls and bad reception, have many friends who experienced it and they hate it.
anyway good luck and happy phone calls..!

No but really, I also thought there would be a problem, esp with all the media coverage and stuff. I got me an iPhone 4 and guess what - no problem whatsoever! Even when I am in weak network coverage, no problem. The bars may go down a few (which is supposed to happen when there is poor coverage!) but i have no dropped calls! And the call quality is actually better than the blackberry i had before. And the multimedia is WAY better than any blackberry. Not sure about the others, but I'm a satisfied customer!
Hey Bad Apple - just curious, what kind of phone do you have dude?

Scott, 03 Aug 2010Now i list disadvantages of iPhone:
-1) No full multitaski... moreThe phone you need to buy should be a device that you can make calls from and receive calls, iphone 4 drops your calls, and have very bad reception regardless of network provider, so broden your mind, there are many phones out there which by far out performing iphones, Galaxy S, Samsung Wave (if you are not a heavy apps user) , HTC desire
these phones also don't make you restricted, you can have your USB conected transfer files via bluetooth, amazing screen which iphone4 can just dream of, beside you can make phone call from them without interruptions. iphone4 is just joke, why do I need a phone which drops signals on touch from the side, why do I need a piece of plastic round my phone to resolve the issue?! this is just so sad!

If your ip4 has a yellow spot, you can make a genius bar appointment and have it exchanged right away. As for it's reception, I think it's your carrier that has signal issues, not the iphone. The ip4 has improved reception and better call quality than the 3gs. Or maybe you're just lying, and you don't really have the ip4 :)

Just got the iph4 from M1 (Singapore). The first thing that I did was to do the "Death Grip". At times the signal dropped by 1 or 2 bar. And still can make and received call. At times the signal did not even drop.
test it at several location. Same result. Signal dropped and also signal remain. At no time the signal dropped to zero bar.
I am not sure about others but the antenna seems is not an issue to the iphone4 that I am having.
