(I should probably say at this point that a rattle wouldn’t even be classified as an issue to some people, but is to others – perception of an issue is key here)
Mercifully, the iPhone 3G (my one that is) has been creak-free up until now – and I have to qualify that by saying I’ve had some REALLY poor devices in the past that have creaked and cracked their way along through normal usage. I’d not really experienced any of that with the iPhone 3G.
However, the last few days have been bad for creakage . The iPhone now has developed a creak when I hold the device at each end in one hand, then press the on/off button. Given Apple’s legendary build quality, that ain’t good. Of course, I thought it wouldn’t be a long term problem as I’m planning to get an iPhone 3GS, but given Will’s issues, I might just hold off!
Anyone else’s device doing the creak?

Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
