This problem right here is beginning to make me wonder. I have seen other problems that folks are having, with things like software that is not working OOB, etc., and when I was talking to the VZW reps before buying this phone (after I joined here, before the phone came out) one of the reps spilled the beans about them having the phone out and about to play with. Also, I went to Best Buy to look at their phone After I had received mine on Saturday, looking for cases, and I noticed that the slide out KB on the BB display was very easy to slide out - whereas mine is nice and tight, meaning it doesn't open easily (and thus not in my pocket, either, like in yet another thread).
Is it possible that folks who purchased the phones in VZW stores actually got units that have been used and passe around a lot, and thus have parts that have been used, making them vulnerable in this manner to ease of removal and ease of sliding out?
I mean, mine came from VZW via calling them, it has one of the latest dates of manufacture that I have seen, and everything is tight (battery cover requires a good amount of pressure, just like GMB said above me) and the KB is tight, as I mentioned....
