The only thing that seems to affect my signal so far is electrical interference. Such as when I sit my phone on my home subwoofer.

I think the hand theory may be dependent on the quality of the signal you are receiving to begin with. Here in Miami, 3G has been pretty strong. I was using my laptop 3G modem and getting 4.5mbps download speed. On the phone I was around 1.47mbps.

Remember, from what I understand, you can receive 3G signal from multiple cell towers so this may explain why no matter how I hold the phone, I have strong signal.
