That´s right - but one the other hand my findings onthe 15 or so I´ve handled so far of the new 3G model have been the same.

I´m not saying it´s a bad device ore poorly built - the older one is just a bit better. They had to cut the costs of each unit after all because it´s only half the retail price of the first gen. iPhone now.

However, it is a nice toy after all and I just love to play around with the thing!
