Help WiFi strength always low

Does anyone notice poor WiFi reception on their phone? While sitting on the couch with my fiancee with her iphone 3gs, we both have our wifi connected to the home router which is in the other room on the same floor, and my signal is at 1 bar and her's is full. What's the deal with the phone's wifi antenna? I'm running stock 2.1update1
