The last word on Matt\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, now Diane\u00e2\u20ac\u2122s, iPhone.<\/p>\n
After sitting in the snow and slush for two months the only noticeable problem was a quirky keypad. The numbers 4, 5, and 6, when tapped, would register the numbers above or below, unless you hit the center of the desired number and held your finger to the screen.
