[citation][nom]doron[/nom]How is it a leap forward, exactly? No matter how fast or sleek-looking it is, it loses signal when you hold it (perhaps because the metal exterior serves as antenna?) and could stop working / friggin' break(!!!!!!!) when you drop it............You want an iPhone? Get a 3GS, nothing wrong with it.[/citation]
The metal exterior does not serve as the antenna, it merely affects the antenna in some cases (soon we will be getting numbers about what % of people experience this signal reduction and why). I agree with you that it is a valid concern for people considering making this purchase.
