Here's an update:
My local SE customer service center told me they couldn't do much at this point because a) I am the first to report such issue and b) k800 is too new and there is simply no keypad spare parts available at this point.
However, they took a pic of my cellphone and promised to report this issue back to the SE HQ. If this is indeed a widespread issue then SE may consider replacing the keypad for free just like they did to the W800i orange joystick knob.
Remember to report to your local SE center if your k800 keypad coating peels like mine.
Oh well...

wow...i didn't know they still used rubber for phone keys - i could have told them its a bad idea! - use see-through plastic, then paint on the underside, and let the numbers/letters see through

best way - well...i think they even use that way on some phones (e.g. my phone

the v600i!)
correct me if wrong!

EDIT - also, rubber doesnt look that good

- and also feel that good

Hi,
Mate are you from the UK? If so where did you buy your phone from? If your in the UK you have been either sold a test model or an import. The extra symbols on the keypad shouldnt be there for a UK model. I suggest you question the place you bought from.

As i stated in my earlier post, those are chinese strokes. It is either a test model or a Hong Kong model
