It feels to me as though people are getting their panties in a knot about the graphical representation of the signal. I know there are 'studies' saying how the dB strength is affected but I have never had no service, or any ill effects from holding it the 'wrong' way.
I think Apple are covering something up here:
Quote:
Upon investigation, we were stunned to find that the formula we use to calculate how many bars of signal strength to display is totally wrong. Our formula, in many instances, mistakenly displays 2 more bars than it should for a given signal strength. For example, we sometimes display 4 bars when we should be displaying as few as 2 bars. Users observing a drop of several bars when they grip their iPhone in a certain way are most likely in an area with very weak signal strength, but they don’t know it because we are erroneously displaying 4 or 5 bars. Their big drop in bars is because their high bars were never real in the first place.
LMAO. Nice cover up Apple, I'm still interested in what the Class Action Lawsuit brings about.
I'm not sure, I don't think we've been given enough information to determine the interworking elements of Apple.Quote:

Oh well. Hopefully they push out a software update to fix it for you soon :)Quote:
