I’ve had my iPhone 3G for a few weeks now, and I’ve noticed something very strange. I rarely have full signal according to the bars on the phone. However, I’ve not had any problems with dropped calls or sketchy service. It’s like the phone doesn’t know how strong my signal is.

I’ve heard of others having connectivity problems and claiming the 3G connection is no faster than their old EDGE connection. Thankfully I haven’t seen that yet. I compare load times for web sites with my wife’s original iPhone, and my iPhone 3G always loads them much faster when I’m in a 3G area.
