I am using my new Iphone 3G S in my basement and it is off by about a block. is this due to faulty software or being in the basement?

I don't have a basement but sitting in my living room the little blue dot is on top of my house on the satellite.
 
GPS isn't going to be 100% accurate. It has a pretty good distance it can be off by. Only military can be very accurate. Mine is somewhere in my backyard however when I use the locate feature.
