You might want to amend that to 22 per cent THINNER. The new iPhone is not going to be quarter the size of the original!

Good point. The iPhone, now so small you can't actually do anything with it.

Um, 22 percent smaller is equal to 78 percent of the original size.

22%? That's still pretty good...0.78 * 11.6 = 9.048, so 9mm. If they get the GPS working with Google Maps it'll be amazing, but this is probably a given because Jobs is on Google's board.
