In the ATTWS main store in North Charleston, SC, about 1/2 mile from the
3G tower, I saw no signal drop in the demo iphone when I wrapped my hand
around it.......



.......UNTIL I gave it something to do, booted Safari, clicked up Youtube
and played any video. Then, with my hand wrapped around it with the
salesman who told me they'd never seen this problem, the bars went
south....5...4....3....2...1....Youtube locked and we finally got the no
signal message. I let go of the left hand and held it by the top edge,
the bars instantly reappeared, the phone reconnected to ATTWS and
youtube started reloading AFTER I clicked it up again, probably because
we had a different IP address on the 3G server.

I told him, "There, now you don't have to go around telling everyone
you've never seen the issue in the store, any more.".....
