Here is one antenna engineer's investigation:

He thinks the free case closes the issue.
Thanks. That is very interesting. That basically agrees with one of the reports above as well. What is interesting is that even in worst case it is better than the iPhone 3G. I was talking to a colleague while waiting for a delayed Friday about his iPhone 4. He said he definitely could duplicate the effect but that when not holding the phone there it seemed a lot better reception wise than his 3GS. That would be consistent with these observations as well.
