Intermittent data problems

I'm using a 2nd gen iPhone with 2.0.1 and ever since I got this phone I've been having issues with the phone intermittently unable to connect to data services like mail, weather, web, etc. The E symbol will remain on so I don't think I'm off the Edge network and often times when this happens I have 3 or more bars. Things will be just fine for most of a day then I'll try to go on something like Safari and I can't get on. No message like "cellular data network unavailable", it just stops working unexpectedly. When this happens if I turn the phone off and back on again everything is fine again for a while. This happens at least once a day, sometimes more. I also had this issue when I was on 1.1.4, thought it maybe seems a little better since I upgraded from 2.0 to 2.0.1.

I should mention that I'm on the total internet plan and have APN set to internet2.voicestream.com (tried wap..same deal).

I borrowed the bosses 3G iPhone (on AT&T) for a few days and didn't experience similar issues - even when I turned 3G off.

Has anybody else here experienced similar problems?
