This is sort of a goofy question, but I noticed recently that the hold button rattles a little along the z axis (ie, towards and away from the screen). I changed cases recently, so maybe I didn't notice it because the old case fit over the button differently. Anyone else's do this?

I assume you are referring to the power button? If so mine is nice and firm but I have seen threads where peoples are getting loose and it seemed to be an area for concern.

Yeah, I meant the power button.

I have read some reports of the button receding over time to the point of becoming flush, but I hadn't heard anything about it being a little rattley. I was curious about whether this could be a precursor to that or if it might be something else. I admit, I'm surely being a bit ocd.
