As a follow-up to my previous post on dropped calls with the iPhone 3G, I’m happy to report that I no longer experience the issue. I haven’t had any major problems with dropped calls on my iPhone 3G, including while switching between EDGE and 3G networks, since I got a replacement unit under warranty from Apple. The ‘Genius’ at the Apple store gave me a bit of hassle the first time and sent me back home with a re-imaged/flashed phone but was happy to replace it right away when I brought it back in the next day with 20% of my calls dropped since the previous day. The replacement unit’s been much better so far — I think now I’m just experiencing the same poor reception that the rest of the iPhone 3G market is stuck with. Hopefully Apple gets their act together soon on this one; it’s been a pretty dismal last few months for them with new launches.
