I really don't know why people are making a big issue of antenna below the handset. Nokia conducted worldwide research on this and considered on the facts like the gripping pattern of handsets during call and network access and network connectivity under various scenario. Usage patterns of mobile handsets require the antenna to be free from immediate blockage and as we hold the handsets to our ears the best possible place to position antenna is either top or the bottom. The top of handsets provide connectors for 3.5mm jack and data cable. The best possible place where one doesn't grip is the bottom of the handset. I personally know this because I had interacted with some R&D people from Nokia.
I have a 5235 and it has antenna at bottom but it never fails to deliver best possible connectivity. Nokia is the leader in the aspects of network connectivity and battery backup Poor Nokia continues to build bulky and heavy handsets just to provide best battery backUp while Samsung LG et al favours sleek looks over endurance!
Friends, Nokia is lagging behind in terms of producing best-looking handsets, providing best screens, incorporating best CPUs and still shying away from Android. Still, Nokia is the leader in Network Connectivity and Battery Performance and so let them decide how and where to place the antenna and also the size of the battery (read mAH rating). Whatever they do, I believe strongly will be in our best interests.
Enjoy.

                    [deleted post]Perhaps one of the most intriguingly curious query! Why should one compare between a touchscreen and a qwerty device? They belong to the opposite ends of the spectrum!

                            Anonymous, 22 Nov 2011Hi, i want to know is it a dual sim standby or dual sim act... moreNot exactly disclosed in the specs page but should be Dual-SIM Stand By as there are two GSM connections. Dual SIM handsets incorporating two different modules like CDMA and GSM have this Dual-SIM Active feature usually.
