Well, at least a week into my replacement Purple unit (I actually tried to get them to change me to Blue, since I'm sick of the Purple by now... but no dice).

Can't say if the contrast on the screen is any better OR worse (I was keeping track of that discussion and decided not to participate until I had a firm opinion... but apparently still don't!)

I do wonder if they sent my back the same innards in a replacement case. No idea.

The one thing I note is that whatever "casing" job was done on this one, it resulted in the 9 and 0 buttons being a bit... loose (the 0 mostly). They seem to sit a bit lower, they don't protrude as much, and I think that's why they feel loose--not as much of the button is "above" the rim of the cutout. And actually to a lesser extent the 4 and 5.

It's minor though--nothing I'd return it over.

No sign of new paint peeling, then again I wouldn't expect that for months anyway. And the battery seems just fine.
