Nope. Just speaking on behalf of my own experiences. My last three models of iPhones never had this problem. Go drink some more stevejuice.

Consumer Reports Still Not Recommending iPhone 4

"touching the iphone with one finger doesn't drop all signal" is not a true statement. Perhaps it doesn't for you, but it did for me.
Its amazing how consumer reports never picked up on any of the other glitches. I think this will tarnish their record as a fair product review publisher. The only reason why they review the iphone problem is because of the publicity it was getting, they saw an opportunity to jump on the ban wagon, and get publicity themselves to be seen as a up to date magazine. They should review every product including all smartphones the same way rather then singling one out. They should retract their comments about the iphone.
Why should Consumer Reports change their stance..... Apple didn't fix shiate.....iPhone is still s*h*i*t*t*y for people who have the problem, glad mine works flawlessly. No dropped calls yet
Do you realise how utterly moronic your comment is?
Hey partner! Well I don't own a Toyota but as far as the rest of your post goes I agree with you.
Con$umer Report$... Payola$ Anyone?
F**kers probably got paid by Android.
I don't have any issues with signal... And I haven't had a dropped call since I got my iPhone 4...
Now, the proximity sensor problem really annoys me...

There is no issue with the proximity sensor, your cheeks are too chubby. Go get some plastic surgery and that will resolve the issue.
as somebody noticed, if you put ONE FINGER between TV and your remote
nothing will work, don't put your finger to the week spot, that's all
even worse, put only 1 finger into someone eye, that someone will lose his/her eye
there are many amazing things that ONE FINGER can do
BTW, now we know why Apple decided to "re-calibrate" signal bar (as if they did not know how they worked before). They needed it to look better in terms of dropped bars compared to other phones during today's dog and pony show
Am I the only one that is getting REALLY tired with all the blind fanboys that spew nothing but garbage? Most forums are ok with people stating their opinion but just look at those youtube comments!
I dont really get the binarity of their statements, if I dislike a product I can usualy find a couple of good points about it.
The thing is, NO-ONE would use the same language and have the same anger about it if the where debating face to face, so why do it online?
Maybe it's time to enforce personal responsibility online to mellow stuff out, imagine a troll free internet because ppl would be personally accountable for what they do.

Yes, they obviously are.
Yes, obviously did.
Did anyone catch Jobs slip up during the PC, that part about them not sitting on their asses for 3 months. I bet if one could access their bumper order, one would find that it was placed 2 months prior to launch.

Actually the funny thing is that Jobs was asked why they "fixed" the wrong bar algorithm again after it has already been "fixed" when the 3GS was introduced (the "fix" was that more bars were being displayed....). Jobs answered that he can't remember what the 3GS bar fix was.... Yeah sure.
I think Apple's point is that you don't need one for the iPhone 4 either, but if a bumper makes you feel better they will give you one. I get the impression that Apple thinks the whole affair is BS an overblown. They made a trade off for better performance and they are sticking by it.
After being a 5 year subscriber to Consumer Report I have cancelled my subscription. The lady asked me why, and I told her because of the stupid report you guys did regarding the iPhone 4 without having data and not knowing that other smartphone has the same problem.
She told me I wasn't the first to cancel.

Mature comment! Hopefully your babysitter didn't catch that or you might be put in timeout.
