I recentley was offered an assignment(my first) accepted it verbally. The company sent the contract and I signed but the assignment details were wrong so they sent me a new contract which I have not signed yet. In the Mean time I might have the opportunity for a much better paying assignment.! So... am I bound by the orriginal contract? Still figuring all this out.

Legally, you're not bound if the location, shift, hours or department on the contract you signed, were not what you're going to be doing. Those details would make the original contract you signed null/void.

Ethically, it's not recommended that you change companies in the middle of a transaction. It is done though. If this is your first time dealing with the travel company, it is likely that they (and probably the facility) will not want to deal with you in the future if you now refuse to sign the second contract.

Your call. There are a lot of other facilities and companies out there.
