Does any else experience a ton of UMA to GSM hand off failures??

I have my phone set to prefer the GSM/EDGE network. In my house where the T-Mo network is weak, but still there (ie never lost a signal with any non-UMA phones) my 8120 switches over to UMA on occasion... Anytime I start a call on UMA and enter an area of my house with strong GSM/EDGE signal the call will drop as the Blackberry tries to switch back to GSM. The WiFi diagnostics screen confirms this, zero GSM->UMA failures, numerous UMA->GSM failures.
