I stood up on a carpet floor, barefoot, holding the phone in my left hand in the "guaranteed to lose reception" position. And didn't lose reception. Repeated on tile, didn't lose reception. Repeated touching various conductive and non-conductive objects. Didn't lose reception. As I've been saying since last night: if it's a defect, it's most likely a defect in some batches of phones and not fundamental to the design/present in all of them.
