Oh dear my 3G IPhone is starting to crack up:-
The crack is about 12mm (1/2″ long) starting from the 3.5mm headphone connector.
I have an appointment to see a Genius in the Cambridge Apple store in a short while….

I upgraded my 24″ iMac to Leopard (OSX10.5) all went smoothly. Except for my brand new Lexmark X4580 printer/scanner/reader. The printer refuses to print and even worse crashes the programme that is sending the print. Looking up in Google I found the Apple users forums where another user was having similar problems. Emails to [...]
