Major signal degradation when Nexus One is picked up

When my phone is sitting on the desk, the signal stays.consistent. However, the second I touch my phone, the signal drops up to as much as -20 dBm. I am able to replicate this test every single time, whether the signal is incredibly strong or weak.



some users are also reporting that they also have the problem after installing 4.0 on an older iphone, which suggests that it has less to do with the antenna design and how the phone is held than it does the firmware itself and how it interacts with the cellphone network, not to mention that other phones come with instructions on how to properly hold the phone too.

supposedly 4.0.1 will be out soon, possibly even next week.
