On one hand, Apple reps and support say they have not heard about any problems, yet on the other hand you have <a href="http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=2471090&amp;start=0&amp;tstart=60" target="_blank">numerous postings on the support forum</a> about this very problem. The disconnect between the two groups is very annoying sometimes. How about you 3GS owner, have you experienced your calls dropping? Or any other problem for that matter if you have upgraded to iOS 4 on your 3GS?</p>

I can confirm that I too have had cellular issues after I updated to iOS 4.0 and they continued in 4.0.1.

I documented them here:

Nope. I drop calls in the same places I dropped them before.

iOS 4 has run perfectly fine on my 3GS since day one.

No noticeable change here in Oz after upgrading to 4 and now 4.0.1. Even on 1 bar of signal calls will hang in there on the 3GS OK.
Cheers
