I live in a fringe area and use a signal booster which works quite well but I have noticed that even with that I never see over 4 bars of signal. So I drove over to the tower and there also the signal indicator never went above 4 bars.

So my question for you 9m owners is: Do you ever see 5 bars?

I don't seem to have any problems with reception and only once has a call gone directly to voice mail but that might have been when I was checking email. I got a feeling that the signal indicator has little bearing on reception as I have placed and received calls with no bars showing.
