They have admitted they are having issues. It will be fixed, why aren't people patient anymore. That being said, my 3G iPhone has been great, signal is not perfect, but it't not perfect on my wifes Samsung either. I don't blame Apple, I blame Optus. But it is still better than Telstra, Vodafone and espicially 3 in my house. So all good.</p> Some people need to get a life. They have admitted they are having issues.
