But I don't wana put too high hopes, lest I'll be dissapointed.

According to their support page, it's still around.

Oh, I'm pretty sure you got to turn some settings on. It's been there since the old Sense. Can't really confirm with you bout all these since I still haven't gotten my One yet lol. Stuck with Desire HD for now.

Hey...I've got good news and bad news.
Good news, I got the silver unit. Bad news, it's defective. It's got 3 defects:
1) Scratch near the front facing camera
2) Quite a huge gap on top
3) DEAD PIXEL!!!!!

ARRGHH I could have just ignored the first two, but not the third. It's like triple blow for me. Already arranged the HTC courier to come and collect the phone. They said they'll give me a replacement unit within 3-5 working days. Hopefully so.

Thanks man. They really have to. Dead pixel seems like a huge deal for them. They kinda ignored the first two complaints but when they heard dead pixel, they straightaway took extra notice lol. But damn, just found out the screen's uneven too..that's Fatal Four for me...it's like the Horsemen of Apocalypse came to whack me today.

Well hopefully Butterfly S won't face nonsense that me & the others faced. After one month of waiting, finally gotten the phone, and phone out it's such a lousy defective unit. The feeling is mortifying. Now I remembered one of you guys had the same dead pixel issue. Who was it again?

Nephrite Guess you can finally add me to the list. 32GB Silver here. Was too disappointed yesterday forgot to inform ya. Thanks!

I've sent my phone for 1 for 1 exchange today. Hopefully I can get it by next week. About the free 25 USD thing, prolly we can try this method:
