I'm holding it wrong (wifi strength)

Just an interesting thing I noticed about the NS4G to compound with the rest of the radio issues being widely reported. This one's not too surprising (to me), more an observation.

I noticed that I could cause the wifi signal bars to drop depending on how I hold the Nexus S 4G. If I hold it "normally" with my hand gripping the bottom 50% of the phone, I get 2 out of 3 bars. If I let go and just pinch the phone up near the top, I get the full 3 bars.

I downloaded the Network Signal Info app, which graphs your radio power in dBm over time. I can reliably cause a drop in wifi signal from -40 dBm down to -76 dBm just by varying my grip.

Again, not complaining, just noting an observation.
