For those that have returned because of this, did you get much pushback?

Just curious

I've had it since launch day. There is some wiggle but I didn't even notice it until I read this thread. It doesn't bother me at all when I type. I use the slide keyboard exclusively, too, which means I'm sliding it open countless times per day.

I think the device feels like a tank. I say that having tried out my wife's iPhone 4, the EVO, the Samsung Captivate, etc. I'm not sure where all this anti-BB negativism is coming from. You can drop a BB 9800 from a height and be fine (I've already dropped my Torch from 5 feet). If you drop a iPhone 4, you'll get a cracked glass screen almost guaranteed. But you don't hear apple fans complaining night and day about shoddy apple construction.
