Antenna Issue Not with All Phones - I have 4 iPhone 4s and . .. .

Question

3 of them do not exhibit this at all. Of course, one does, and that is my 32G iPhone 4. Wife's and kids' phones do not lose signal at all. Weird.
And, it only occurs when covering up the seam at the bottom left corner of the phone. Signal comes right back when you move your hand/finger.
Put a case on = no issue at all. What are people hearing Apple is doing about this, if anything?

Ok, this is definitely an issue. Yes, the signal can be affected by hand position but not like this. I can replicate this problem with 100% accuracy. It's not like it does it sometimes and sometimes not. This is an anomaly with the iPhone 4. With mobile phones, hand position and the positioning of the phone can increase or decrease the signal and amount of bars shown. This usually happens randomly. But in this case, when placing my hand or thumb or anything over the line seperating the antenna's on the lower left side, my bars slowly decrease until there is no signal. When I remove my hand, the signal goes back to full bars. I've seen phones drop or gain a bar or two at times but not like this. This will go from full bars to no signal every single time. My call dropped 3 times in 10 minutes during my first conversation today.
The bumper case is not a solution. If the phone can't be used like a phone should be used out of the box then there is a problem. How else are we supposed to hold it? It is designed to fit in the palm of your hand. When I am talking, my hand is resting on about 80% of the sides. The bottom area is the most common area to hold.
This issue isn't even close to a dealbreaker for me though. I love this phone and think it's the best phone period. I just hope we get some official word on this problem other than spend $30 on a bumper case. I love the staneless steel look and don't want to cover it up. I'm glad to see that some users don't have this issue. Hopefully it is just a bad batch. At least the phone is still usuable for now. This is just a minor snag. I know Apple will be on top of it in no time.
I am just already getting tired of reading posts from people saying this isn't an issue when it most definitely is. I'm 100% positive that what I and others are experiencing should not be happening.
