In all other respects, the unit has performed flawlessly (within the confines of the firmware and subsequent upgrades).

Is that what we are talking about? It's definitely not something I would ever consider replacing. The button itself is completely intact.
Yep - button is still intact, but has sunk down on the right side, leaving a gap. Still performs fine. I've been wondering if I could just keep it like that or if it would start to get worse over time and then eventually affect performance. I know another poster here crazy glued his to prevent dirt, dust or food from getting in the opening.

I am not particularly jumping for joy to exchange mine...do you think it will last another year or two with a sunken button?
