Following is a typical conversation from my home, in my room, on my IDEA cellular phone.
ring..ring ........ring..ring.
Friend: Hello.
Me: Hey Wassup?
Friend: Hi? How are you?
Me: I am great what you upto?
Friend: Nothing much just watching t.v. What's Happening
Me: Well I wanted to know....[At this point I am talking away and that person is getting a very badly distorted, breaking signal of my voice ] ....if you wanna go watch...
Friend: ....hello ...dude, you are breaking up very badly...hello..hello..
[now I shift my head and torso around where I am sitting, in a very epileptic seizure type motion, trying to get a better signal]...
Me: Now can you hear ....
Friend: ...hello ...you still breaking up very badly......
Me: LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA LA
[by now my signal has marginally improved]
Friend: Okay stop I can hear you now...[so I stop going LALALALA] ....what were you saying?
Me: Do you wanna go watch "Rang De Basanti"?
Friend: What time is the show?
Me: Can you make the 5 'o clock.
Friend: Well I might be a bit late....
[Now whats happened is that I can hear him totally clear, but he can't hear a word of what i am saying...it's just blank...no distortion.]
Me: Why?
Friend: Hello?.....you there?...
Me: Yes.
Friend: Hello?
Me: Yeah I am listening.
Friend: Hello? Hello.....Heelllloooo.....Heeeeeellllllllooooooooo.....
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelllloooooooooooooo... Hello Hello Hello Hello
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeelloooooooooooooooooo... Hello Hello Hello
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellooooooooooooooooo...Hello Hello
Heeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeellooooooooooooooooo. Hello Hello
[Once again miraculously with my Mohammed Ali like movements the signal marginally improves.]
Me: Can you hear me now?
Friends: Yeah now I can hear you.
Me: So why you gonna be a bit late?
Friend: Because I have to......
Me: Okay so what I will do is that...[now he can hear me, but I have a total blank in my ear...]...book the tickets
[I now realise that I can't hear]...Hello? you there?....[and finally the phone gets cut and I hear two beeps].
That is the end of my conversation of exactly 1:34 minutes.
This happens every day REGULARLY, anywhere in my house.
I have had a few friends come over and go through the same thing...but they don't go LALALALALALA ...they just go Hello? hello ? heeeellllloooooooo.
I really wish they would do something for my area. I have a tower overlap problem. I get upto 6 different, all distant tower signals....Maybe they should just put a tower over my roof....
An IDEA can change your life....or speech impair you....

Haha ...
I have the same problem too - getting signals from multiple places - and all it takes is taking a step in one direction or the other to switch areas :)
My solution to the distortion problem is to head to the windows or outside.
