Despite all the hate for the OP, it cuts reception on my TP2 consistently from 4-5 bars down to 2-3 bars. Takes about 10-20 seconds for the bars to change (it's not instant). And granted, as about 10 people have already said, nobody holds a phone that way - ever - so it's not a valid comparison.

I suppose kudos to the TP2 engineers who designed a phone that only suffers from hand/digit-caused reception problems when held in a completely preposterous manner (think "my preciousssssssss"). And this doesn't absolve Apple of their responsibility to include left-handed people in their product testing plans...
You don't need to hold the TP2 with both hands all over the back to have a severe affect on the signal strength. You simply need to hold it near the top under the camera area. As pointed out in the manual... But I guess I'm the only person who ever read that lol.
