Just got my computer back from the Apple store, and they replaced the bottom part of the casing under my warranty. It took a little longer than normal thanks to all the iphone craziness, but what can ya do?
Once again, this wasn't the common palmrest cracking, but rather, cracking in the hard polycarbonate bottom case on a computer that gets handled with care. I've had the palmrest cracking as well, and both times Apple fixed it right away, argument-free. If you've got either of these problems, you really should get it fixed before the cracks worsen and (potentially) expose the insides of your computer to the elements.
Oh, and thanks for all the insight, and letting me know I wasn't the only one! Good luck to all of you who have similar problems!
