Darn it!
Looks like this has been showing up in all my iPhone photos over the last few days. the second photo is zoomed in with the background out of focus. Notice how the flaw is still in focus? It looks like bit of lint, and probably is, sitting right on top of the camera's sensor. If it was a problem with the lens it would not be in focus.

If I can't dislodge it with some gentle (and maybe not so gentle) tapping, I guess I'll have to see if my Applecare+ will cover the problem. I use my iPhone's camera for too many things for this to be tolerable. It will Quickly drive me crazy, especially right ther in the middle of the photo.
*sigh*
Ok, I'll stop whinging. Just had to share this little bump in an otherwise nice day.
