No, not an Antenna Gate joke.


With my 3G, I would rest the area right under my index finger along the right side, my index finger propping the back, my middle and ring fingers along the left side, and my pinky securing it at the bottom. This allowed to full access of the key board and was extremely comfortable.

When I do this on my iPhone 4, since the back is not rounded, securing my phone with my pinky hurts (I know, I know, the follies of the well off).


I know it's a silly question, but out of curiosity, how does everyone else hold their phone?

Quintessential death-gripper here, fingers wrapped around, thumb where it shouldn't be. :D Even worse because I tend to rest the back of the phone against the palm of my hand, so I'm killing the internal antenna too. The bumper keeps me from losing enough signal to make it all a problem though, and I've not had any dropped calls from it.
 
Classic death grip method for me. But being that the networks in Australia aren't rubbish like AT&T I don't have any signal problems.
