Randy,

Seems we are among the first to hit this flaw. Based on what I see, it
will happen eventually.

BTW I forgot to mention a couple of things. If the repair is billable, it
will cost $187. A lot of money for 1/8" of plastic that will probably
fail again.

Also, I was asked to gather emails from others with the same problem to
further the case. Once my case is established, ones that follow will be
treated similarly. So, if you know of a T2* that is cracked on the right
side of the keyboard, please let me know.
