it's possible you were impressed with a cheap marketing gimmick based on a little statistical apples-and-oranges comparison.

You mean like saying the new iPhone 4 only drops 1 call in 100 more than the 3GS, without telling you the drop rate of the 3GS? ;)

Defend your position.

Apple’s overwhelming customer satisfaction score says you are horribly wrong.

I don't think the total dropped call statistics really tell you much. If you've got plenty of towers around you, you might never drop a call. If you're in a marginal coverage area, it might be 1 in 10.

Straight Up Legit Question:

If you hold a phone a certain way and the signal changes or goes lower, is that, in and of itself a problem or is it just a normal function of the phone where the signal is always changing under different conditions?

I won’t demand a yes or no, or play any of your style silly games. Answer it any way you’d like. I just want to know if “a change” equals or means “a problem” or if “a change, for the worse, a lower score, interference, whatever you call it, real and measurable, is just a well, NORMAL.
