    I couldn't have said it better. So STFU already.

    That’s like putting tape on the 3G-Spot, it masks the problem but it doesn’t fix it. I think one of the two has a "design flaw" and is constantly "short circuiting”. (That’s a joke, Ireland! )

    Seriously, that's like asking TechDud to stop creating user names.



    Besides, too many poster think you might know something, so they keep responding to you.

    The number of personal attacks at AI seems to be competing with actual posts debating the issues. Surely, if you believe that posters are trolling, you can alert the mods and have those people warned and banned.



    But this "attack the poster, not his argument" mentality hints strongly at the attacker's inability to deliver a cogent argument. Personal abuse is not an alternative to reason.



    And just in case I'm accused of whining, I understand the frustration that some here feel, seeing a lot of recent criticism of Apple and some product issues. It's tempting to put it down to a co-ordinated troll attack, but the more reasonable explanation is that there's a rare mis-step by Apple and people want to express their concern and disappointment.



    This is an appropriate forum for that expression. At least it's in the family, and not happening on a more general tech site that would have a wider audience.



    In my opinion, if you're resorting to personal attack, you're admitting that you're intellectually bankrupt. Let's keep it civil huh folks?

    Well at the end of the day the question is with the death grip, does the iPhone4 still have a better reception than any grip on the iPhone 3GS? Indications are maybe, maybe not?



    I am still awaiting further clarity on this issue. Ireland's in for the long haul, let's just help him loosen up a bit from time to time

    Ireland has a death grip on the situation that he?ll likely not get the data if and when it?s resolved.

    Hi



    we live in Switzerland, altough the iPhone 4 is not officially available here, we drove quickly over to France and bought a couple of iPhone 4. We came back and tested them really hard... espescially we tested this reception issue and we have no issues here.



    We use Swisscom in Switzerland, that's the largest Operator and there are no dropped calls, no signal loss, nothing ! We use to touch it around the antenna, we even touched it with our tongue ! nothing... it works, no issues here...



    We think you have a problem with the operator, in Switzerland there is absolutely no signal issues and dropped calls, nothing!



    Greeting



    G
