Returning your iPhone 4 within 30 days???

Keeping! I get signal in places I never have before even without a case. I also tested in those places with the "death grip" and not one dropped call yet.

Nope, I am not

im keeping it with a case on it works fine

Definitely keeping......in fact, swapping for a replacement because I have the proximity sensor issue. But otherwise, my reception is great. I can make the bars disappear with the "death grip" but I haven't dropped a call even still. I definitely get better reception quality that I did with my 3GS. (Regardless of how many bars I do or don't see).

A 3G running iOS 4 doesn't seem like a good solution either.

I agree. That's why I downgraded to 3.1.2. Works fine by me.

Keeping mine too! No issue for me. This phone is sooo much better than my 3GS.

I've had both issues, grip of death and proximity sensor, but my feather case solved the reception issue. I also know when I am on a call to make sure I don't move the phone around a whole lot while talking, because this is when you'll hang up, mute, or whatever. Being aware of it, helps me to prevent it.

Hopefully a software update will indeed solve that issue. Not sure the reception issue will be resolved by an update, other than they make the changes Apple has mentioned in regards to bars. It won't change anything in terms of drop calls. So, if you are having drop calls now, you'll likely have them after the update. If you aren't having them now you won't after the update.. I hope!

Keeping mine, not having any of the reported problems. I am looking into a thin case just to help protect the precious.
