I just came back from AT&T store. Spent a good 30+ minutes with the phone.

The phone build quality, styling, and screen are all excellent. Initially I could not produce the antenna signal problem. I tried holding in several ways I normally hold the phone as a lefty. I almost assumed it's an isolated problem. Then, while playing with the phone my palm had some moist sweat in the middle of the palm. So, I put the left corner of the phone there and BOOM the signal slowly disappeared just like in all those videos. I rubbed that moistness over my entire palm and I am so easily able to reproduce the problem.

While I was doing all this AT&T salesman was watching me and wondering what the heck I am doing:D with the phone. When I explained to him what was happening and he tried it himself and went shocked. He looked worried.

One thing I figured while leaving the store is it's hard to go back to 3.5" screen after using a 4" screen phone for couple of months.
