When you put your iPhone next to speakers or sometime computers the speakers go on the fritz or the screen starts acting funny? if you do is there any way to fix this or do i just got to deal with it?

It's the GSM waves from the cell phone part of the iPhone causing interference.

You need to buy properly shielded speakers to eliminate the interference. For example... Altec Lansing T612: The First iPhone-Friendly, GSM Buzz-Shielding Speaker Dock | Gizmodo Australia

If you're not sure if a set of speakers you're looking at is properly shielded, just make sure to ask because most of them aren't.

That also happens to the landline phone in my office.

The really fun effect is when I have the iPhone docked to my Dell laptop: Outlook will randomlly highlight the last message in my inbox and Excel/Word will type random characters (most often the Euro symbol). No other program affected and it only happens when the iPhone is docked.

I am getting use to it actually. Now I know that I have a call or a text coming in depending on the sound.

The iPhone's shielding is much worse than any other phone I've ever used. I work in a police comm center and I can't have my iPhone within about 2 feet of the radio console. Every other phone I've used has sat directly on top of the console while I'm at work.

Additionally, I've seen GSM phones make noises sitting next to tinny, tiny computer speakers before. The iPhone, however, is the only phone that I've seen make speakers in a car go nuts. The GSM buzz is crazy on the iPhone.

Not a huge deal, but I hope that's one of the things fixed with the iPhone 2 hardware.
