Default Missed Calls?

I live in a small town w/ one cell tower. I've been using a variety of different cell phones and have never had any problems until the latest and greatest came along and screwed things up.
Now, w/ the Iphone I miss perhaps 2-3 out of ten calls. I know I haven't left the calling area, no it's not on vibrate... etc.
Am I alone with this problem or are others finding that the not so holy grail is missing calls?

If you are missing calls you may just not be hearing the ringer go off. If the phone is saying that it had a missed call, the calls are making it to the phone itself. May want to do a few test calls to yourself to make sure the phone is ringing on all calls.

If you are using EDGE for data (safari, youtube, etc) your calls will go to voicemail.

I have been having this problem as well. Not only with the iPhone but since switching to ATT a few months back with a blackberry 8800. Raising the bar my a**. I lose calls and do not get them even with full signals. I live in an area where all cell phones work fine. You wouldnt believe how many dropped calls I have while on the phone sitting in one area. Its very frustrating.
