Hi.
Covering old ground I realise, but I got me iphone4 yesterday, and cannot believe how bad this antenna / signal reception problem is.
I thought it would be a minor issue, but in my home where my iphone3g got a solid 3 bars and decent 3g reception, the new iphone4 gets mostly 1 or two bars and switching between E and o speed data.
The regular occurrence with the loss of signal is that it goes from 3 bars to "No Service" before seemingly recovering after a minute and then repeating.
A re-boot seems to make it temporarily go to 4 bars - I did get excited thinking this would solve it - but it repeating the above.
I note Steve Jobs saying that it is a software issue and that the phone actually IS getting good reception, however that doesn't help that calls will not be made / received, and the way I would prefer to hold my phone IS to rest the bottom left corner in the palm of my left hand!
Like I say, old ground but I hope someone nice at apple is reading these and we can all add our names below as a kind of petition if we have this issue to get some real numbers of the iphone4 customers who have this basic problem - maybe this way we'll get a software update quickly.
