Thats bad luck man, sorry to hear it. I would exchange it. Having 2 different temps would be very annoying.

Want some cheese with that whine? Why don't you just wait until all these revAs get through and (hopefully) Apple will nail out this screen problem. I dont think all builds are affected. Ive got a week 26 (bar replacement) that is fine.

Agreed, but might want to make it somewhere near 3, or at least until mms hits and then cools down so people to complain about that somehow.

if you got a new phone they had to do something to it, and since it was a genius and not a send in, you should have been standing right there...

they replaced my screen in the back. it took them 20 mins, after which the store was closed. (7:10PM on the Fourth.)

i didn't use it to make a call until the next Monday, when i was already back home, and found that the proximity sensor no longer worked.

he said half of your screen being yellow was accidental?

i just showed him, asked him to compare it to his iPhone, he said "wow, that's bad" and replaced it.

oh, it's the resident "OH MY GOD I HATE WHINING EVERYONE LISTEN HOW MUCH I HATE IT LOOK AT MY CUTE AVATAR I AM GOING TO WHINE IN EVERY ****ING THREAD ABOUT WHINING" moron.

half of my screen is yellow, half isn't. not what i paid 500 for.
