I used an eraser head now and that seems to work for the moment - for the headphone plug. Might try to upgrade it. I also found the dummy plug. See: http://www.gadgetreview.com/2007/09/...ur-iphone.html

Yes, I wrote it...but easier then writing again.

I rarely use the headpones on my ipod or iphone, so I thought I'd be proactive this time, but I haven't found anything like this. Kind of like the RCA dummies for the TT inputs on a stereo, but made of plastic so they dont cut out the signal in my car or anything...

One other thing I am trying to do this time is turn my pockets inside out and really shake em out before putting the phone in there- you'd be surprised at how much dirt and crap gets embedded at the bottom of your pockets (at least for guys :P )
