Omygod! the Google Nexus one has an antenna problem!

Since everyone1 nowadays talks about the Grip of Death on a certain smartphone, I decided to test myself.

Although I do not have fancy testing labs and equipment my little home testing came to a shocking revelation:

The Google Nexus one loses at least one bar when held in the Grip of Death

So all irony aside, perhaps the cause are just the laws of physics.
Therefore I will not add that to the many flaws of this phone.
