Question of the Day: How’s Your iPhone 3G Reception?

While some of us at Giz actually have better reception with the iPhone 3G than before, that’s not the story raging in Apple’s support forums, where few or no bars is the order of the day–and not just in the US, but worldwide, apparently. For AT&T’s part, they’re redeploying a bunch of 850MHz spectrum (which penetrates indoors better) for 3G service through the end of the year, so it should get a little better, at least. In the meantime, how’s your reception? [Apple]

    I run a business from a home office in the back yard. My crappy old Nokia gets near perfect reception. The iPhone gets almost none – my clients are now saying they can’t hear me on every single call. And this is a replacement with no change in reception. And it gets better – I live about 500m from an Optus 3G tower. I am going to have to ditch it and go back to the old phone.
