Did anyone see the post on Engadget comparing the 3g to 3gs? It says that the 3gs has a water and oil resistant coating but the 3g doesn't, does anyone know if that is true?

I was wondering that, too.

Definitely not water resistant. Especially now since it's oil-resistant it'll probably have a greater affinity for water than it did before.

Being oleophobic doesn't necessarily infer hydrophilia.
