The fingerprint scanner works a bit better on the new one: I have had little difficulty registering the prints this time, but it still fails to recognise the prints most of the time when I try to unlock the phone using my finger (thumb) prints. Blackberry clearly need to look at this as there is obviously a general problem here with what is otherwise a brilliant phone.
