Default the only calls I ever drop...

Are when I am talking to someone on an iphone. My sister, brother, mother, step mother and a few friends all have iphones (3g, 3gs, 4) and its a crap shoot as to if the call will drop or not. But I have never dropped a call on anyone else since I've had a blackberry, from my curve 8310, 9700 and now my 9800.

How bout you?

I've owned several iPhones, and I'll say that I had the most dropped calls using them. The radios are just not that strong.

My Captivate started out like that as well, but with the flashed ROM, I changed the radio software, and now it's pretty decent. The Torch still blows them both away, but I expect that from a BB.

This is well known in certain circles, but AT&T representatives are not usually permitted to just come right out and say it. Notice how people tend to be evasive on the phone when you ask what they like about the iPhone.

This is exactly why I can't bring myself to AT&T to try the Torch. I think the device is great but all i ever hear about them is bad service, dropped calls etc. Just sucks we cant swap phones between CDMA and GSM carriers.
