I am not sure if everyone knows this (because I didn't) but I went to the Apple store with a screen problem (some darkness, like a shadow on the left side) and expecting to put my name down for a replacement unit when more were available I was immediately given a replacement from a stock of brand spankin new, still covered in plastic, replacement phones that are there not to sell but switch out with people who got defective phones.

So I was given a brand new one on the spot from that stock and didn't have to wait until July/August to get a replacement.

Not sure if all the stores have this stock or how limited it is but if you're having a problem it is worth checking out.
