i just made an appointment for tomorrow at 8am at the Apple Store (dont they open at 11 or 10?) anyways last week the switch just fell i was pissed but didnt have time to make an appointment til tomorrow but does Apple cover it? or is there going to be a charge?

i hope yall can help

thanks
 
It should be covered, I don't see why not, unless it shows the water sensor has been tripped or the phone is excessively damaged (like it fell 5 floors or something)
 
thank you guys so much
and im glad my almost 1 year old iphone 3G still looks somewhat new
once again thanks but also is the Genius Bar even open that early?

At my store (Aspen Grove in Co.) they do the one on one and apple learning or what ever it's called. The store does not officially open until 1000 but I had a genius :rolleyes: apt at 0900. IF they say they won't replace it keep at it. No reason, unless excess damage is shown on the phone, the button should come off after a year. I replaced my 3gs after 6 days for 5 specs of dust under the screen. They guy said usually it has to be more and I said no way. 6 days = 5 specs.... 30 days = 25 and so forth. A $600 phone should not have such issues after only 6 days... or in your case 1 year.
 
FYI search for threads started by me. I got a replacement easily on my scratched 3g because the switch fell off. As long as your water sensors are white, you are fine. There was another guy right next to me at the genius bar getting a replacement for the same thing.
 
just got home from the Apple Store
they switched it out immediately :D
