I was wondering if anyone else was experiencing this. At my home, I get roughly one bar of signal but at work I get 4 to 5. One thing I've noticed happening to my iPhone is that it seems to get stuck occasionally displaying my home reception even at work. If I reboot it, it shows the expected amount. I also usually get a flood of text messages and voicemails at that point usually giving me a timeline back to when it first stopped communicating properly. The odd thing though is that even before rebooting, it still seems to have data connectivity. I still get reeder updates and push notifications. It's like only the calls and the texts are being hung up somewhere. Anyone have any thoughts on what this might be?

while I haven't had this issue, i havd noticed it takes a while to update the reception, like when i'm connected to wifi, i'm generally 5-6 blocks away before it finnaly disconnects, but it would have no connection since leaving the drive way.
