Signal Strength Issues

iPhone Death Grip

Looks like the Inc2 is susceptible to the iPhone Death Grip. I had removed the shell case to swap out the microSD card. Now that the phone is back in the case, I have one signal bar and -95db signal strength. Phone and text messages are going through.

Those of you with signal strength issues . . . are you using a case or bumper . . . ?
 
I love this phone, but the signal is definitely weaker than my previous BB Bold and my daughter's VZW iPhone. I agree the bars are not a good indicator, but real strength compared to other smartphones is definitely lacking. Hopefully the pending Gingerbread update fixes this.
