Update on the paint coming off some of the E71's QWERTY keys..a collegue of mine who has the new E63 has the same problem. His QWERTY keyboard is larger like mine..more like the E61 of old. The paint has come off 5 - 6 keys, including the F and G keys like mine. Wierd..and he had it only for about 2 months. Keeps the phone in his trousers pocket without any cover. Cannot be due to sharp fingernails..or else the often used keys like a, e, would have had their paint rubbed off. I can see that it happens to the keys in the middle part of the keyboard. So maybe due to rubbing against the original leather pouch. I have switched to a flip case.
