Black sides flaking?!

[Guest Laser_iCE]

I've watched it get worse and worse over time... But the black line around the sides of the phone is starting to flake really bad... So I've decided to just scratch it off... It appears to be where my palm would always be from holding it, so sweat + heat = nono by the looks of things...

Anyone else got the same problem?

That's happening on my Vario as well. I'm not that bothered about it. I decided with the Vario that I'd be a little lass worried about damage to it. That's why it's never lived in a case and just has a screen protector on it.

Yea, around the camera button & IR. Why didn't they just use black plastic to start with? ;)

[Guest Laser_iCE]

Well I will admit, it looks a hell of a lot better now ... Once you get it all off, it looks like you ahven't done anything to it -- looks better, much like the JAMin.

i didn't really notice untill I read this post. but mine flakes too. not only arround IR & cam-button but around mini-usb jack aswell. I'll see what happens if it gets worse then I'll scratch it off too.

laser-ice... did you scratch off everything off of the keyboard aswell????

Nope, I left the keyboard as is. I simply kept the case close and scratched off all the outer... There's a few places where I can't quite get at yet (I have a habit of biting my nails...), so I'm waiting for them to grow back so I can attack the corners... Man, I noticed last night too just how dirty/"sweaty" the grey part around the outside on the top half is getting ... Looks disgusting ;)

HAHAHAHAHA....

Glad I didn't start scratching mine :-P

you could allway complain to your supplier ;)

Maybe they'll let it be covered by the warranty. and get it fixed for ya.
