Might just wait and see if a fix comes out...
I don't think it will ever get fixed. As reception problems are not that uncommon. This has been highlight more due to the high profile nature of the device. My old Nokia E71 also has the antenna at the bottom and was possible to make it drop signal but this never got much publicity.
The Google Nexus one also had a problem and Google has refused to do anything
