Maybe just by simply replacing the KEYPADS the problem will be solved . . .

Yes... One more person having the same problem!
I bought the phone about 8 days ago, have been extremely carefull with it, always softly applying my thumb on the keys (I'm girl by the way)...
But yesterday I noticed a vertical scratch in the middle of key nr 3, expanding and evolving into a crack. Today key nr 6 shows the same symptoms...
Reading through this topic it seams quite obvious the blame is not the users' but Sony Ericssons!
Really a pitty, loved the design...
I'll try and exchange it tonight.

I'm surprised that SE even missed this fairly obvious quality fault. I'm not impressed with their quality control.
This many incidents don't occur with 'isolated' cases.

Hey, thanks for your prompt replies...
I'm currently backing-up the files on my S500i, getting it ready to bring back to the shop.
I'm still in doubt though... I like the design so much, and especially the 'everchanging theme' (only available on this model). Would I risk exchanging it for a new one, hoping the keys will be stronger, or is this utterly stupid... ?
Which other !reliable! models could you guys suggest to me?
Thanks
