After upgrading to the 3.0 software, I am getting a little annoyed when scrolling to the first page on the iPhone as I now always seem to go one extra swipe and end up at the search screen.

not true. while on the home screen all you need to do is click the home button and the search screen will appear. you don't need to go one extra swipe.

ACTUALLY, IF you configure and use your iPhone's facilities appropriately then you may find that you DO NOT need to SWIPE nearly as much as you used to do - it's called 'usability'.....
One touch on 'Home' can take you to 'Home' (the first page that is not 'Search'), but a double-touch on 'Home' can take you to 'Search'.
If you place ALL of your regularly-used facilities on the first page then you're 'home' and dry! (Pun intended) If you place all of your next most-frequently used facilities on the second page then you're a single 'swipe' away from twice as much as the most-frequently used but only a touch OR a swipe away from the first page and still only a double-touch away from 'Search'.
I used to hate having to swipe several pages to get to something when now I can double-touch to get to 'Search', enter two or three characters and be one touch away from something really precise or unique.
Personally I am THANKFUL for the simplicity of the GLOBAL search function (capitals intended!)

Is is what it is, at least until we get a software update. I can't find any OFF option.
