I think they will fix this soon, if they have not done so already on the assembly line. If they don't, this it could cost them more then repairing the faulty joy sticks on previous models.

I will still buy one when it comes out in 'my neck of the woods' but plan to keep it only until K850 comes out. Photo's from the 850 look great!!

I went and fixed mine at the service centre last week. So there is no problems getting in fixed-warranty issue. I hope they did something additional with it so there wont be any more dust. If not SE has to come out with some solution and instruct the SE service centres how to fix i permanently.

Edit:
I just checked it now and i now have two dust specks on the outer rimm of ´the camera housing and two more on the small "hatch". Hmm lets see where the might wonder off to:) So far i don't think my new dust specs are interrfearing in the shots quality but we'll see. I think that one might bee able to get ones money back if the same issue occours more than three times.

My phone has dust within the camera and its getting worse, i got my K850 about 2 weeks ago.

Im seriously thinking of swapping the phone to the LG KU990, I've bought the latest Sony Ericsson every year for the past 5-6years (and I'm only 18!) but I don't think I can rely on them anymore! My K800 packed up after about 14 months for no particular reason and had other problems with that phone (speaker) and previous phones.

that's what i am afraid of mate, fixing it will only halt the dust from getting in, before more and more are coming in as it's not a fixed solution, something must be done to the shape of the camera protector

Or they could just seal it off better. They told me there is a gasket inside, i thing between the loudspeaker grill and the camera. Byt some said that the dust enters via the lens protection window itself. And i dont think it would be a hard thing to seal it off better. I HATE when my phone doesn't function perfectly but i'll give SE a chance on this one, you know- benefit of the doubt and all that. (i also have a problem witg cracked sound in some calls but it's not a big problem. I might get it fixed)

Anyhuu if the get their shit toghter on this one(and i hope they do) we'll have a wonderfull phone. And it is that already

Well I have ordered a Krusell case just incase this turns out to be a design issue and not a quality problem.

What with the dust causing joystick problems and now this, problems like this should be sorted by now. I must remember to take the vacuum cleaner to my coat pockets too.

Wich one are you ordering? I have concluded that the best one is that one with plastic soft front and a leather hatch on the back. They have it on their website but no store got them here yet...grr it's a swedish manufacturer but hte don't have it in Sweden.

Well there is crystal cases(not krussell's thogh) and those pilot(horizontal) ones and SE:s own of the same kind plus SE:s universal armwrist thingy(check their site)

Where did you order yours? I want one NOW. Buy one for med too and throw it over the sea, to Sweden!
