My Gen1 iPhone has a similar issue - especially since the 2.2.1 upgrade, but I thought it was my signal. But it does intermittently drop back to EDGE/GPRS when wi-fi is enabled (the router is only in the next room, separated by a stud wall). I've repositioned the router with no problems, and I don't have connectivity problems on my laptop, which I use in the same place.

What do you think my chances are of getting a new iPhone? Its still (Just) within its year warranty... plus theres the whole "reasonable time" thing that you have the right to when asking for something fixed.

IE: When you buy a device (the iPhone a casing point), you could reasonably expect it to keep working once the warranty has run out and the vendor should attempt to rectify the issue providing its a reasonable time (don't expect them to do anything 2-3years down the line though...).
