LG VX-6100
Signal strength
I recently upgraded my LG VX10 to a VX6100.
I travel through the Washington/Dulles airport frequently, and am on my phone during my walk through the main terminal.
My VX10 never dropped a call there. My VX6100 does drop calls.
Is this really a VX6100 problem, or the difference between a extended antenna (VX10) and stub antenna (VX6100)?
Do phones with stub antennas inherently have lower signal strength due to that design?
Is this just a design tradeoff made 'acceptable' by evaluating the better tower coverage of "today" (in general) vs. the consumer hassle of fooling with an extendable antenna?
