Perhaps the poor reception claims are isolated and unjustified as a
universal claim? I've been reading reviews that say just the opposite.
Such as:

"The RAZR has excellent signal strength. It's not just great for a
small form factor handset, or for an internal antenna; it's literally
some of the best reception you will experience, period. It's shocking.
We were able to make crystal clear calls from a basement-level bank
vault. Seriously. AT CTIA Ed Zander said this phone had the best
antenna of any Motorola phone ever launched. He was not kidding. The
RAZR is also quite adept at holding onto a signal in low coverage
areas as well. " - PhoneScoop.com

Hmmm.

I've had 2 V3s in a less than ideal area with no problems. My feeback has
been that the V3xx is about the same reception (many more features though).
