when my device is verticle or slanted I get 2 bars

Now its not impossible..mostly in weak signal areas..but the speedtests gives a different story...I mean its worlds apart :/

Here are some speed tests:

TP2 with 3g


Epic with 3g


Epic with 4G (1 bar)


Epic with 4G (2bars)


P.S if someone says iphone deathgrip I will smack them lol

I'm sure coverage will improve once more of my area is blanketed with 4g..but its a very interesting result...
Where in NY ... Im in NYC and i always kept my 4g off b/c I thought we dont get it and why kill my battery... are u you in the 5 boroughs? Let me know, and Ill test it out.

Also any one know if 4g is out in vegas yet? im heading out there this weekend and am hoping to test it, as I know a lot of west coast markets seem to have it as opposed to the east.
