why all the hating on the iphone 4 when the evo drops signal

well, seeing as how most of us here have an iPhone and not an evo, we've never had to worry about an evo dropping a call. 
Strange that it happens when cupping the top of the Evo. I thought the FCC mandated that all mobile antennas be placed furthest away from the user's head.
And what is it with that guy's home screen? It's an incomprehensible mess....

No one debates that blocking cell phone antennas can have an effect on their signal.
The differences with the iPhone 4 are that it can be so dramatic (right down to dropping a call or freezing data transfer), and it happens if you simply place a single finger in a very common position.

But only if you are already in a very low signal area (despite what the bars say).
Because it's Apple and there are a lot of people who hates Apple
Where is this magic position? I haven't been able to find it on my phone.
Why even start this thread? You know you're trolling and nothing good will come of it.
I had a dropped call the other day, but it was because I was holding it in a way that I normally and don't comfortably hold it. For the record, that's one more dropped call than I've ever had with my 3GS, which never dropped calls.
Still not enough for me to worry about it. My phone has been great otherwise.
