How good/bad is the N9's Cellular/GPS/WiFi/BT reception?
 
I will preface his thread with a disclaimer that I know very little about cellular tech.
But I'm keen to debate & learn lots more.

Some background reading to get this ball rolling...
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_UMTS_networks
Blokes analysis of N9's antenna (cant fin orig. article yet, think it was telenor)

*UPDATE*
Changed the thread title in order to broaden the focus of this thread.
We can now debate wireless performance/reliability for: Cellular/GPS/WiFi/BT.
Not sure we should get into BT profiles though, mainly just reception quality/strength.

Think it's better if you clear cache in between.
