    Is your speaker on the back collecting lint already from it being in your pocket? And It's hard to remove it.

    I wonder if it affects the sound quality. It can't be good for it. Seems like it would "muffle" the sound a bit.

    I just got mine yesterday, and mine is already doing that as well, I might go by the store today and see if I can't pick up a pouch for it or something. It looks pretty gross.

    Seems like the right side is clean and no lint.. but the rest of the speaker is built up so thick like adhesive is in each little hole.. its odd.

    exact same thing with mine.... the right is clear, the left is full of lint.

    I have the same exact problem. I am going to try and clean it with some alcohol or adhesive remover on a q-tip later today. Hopefully one of those will work.

    Take a piece of strong adhesive tape, roll it around your finger and roll your finger back and forth over it. It works wonders.

    While this does remove some of it that is sticking up it doesn't do anything for the lint that is in the grill.

    A claybar (if any of you claybar your car) works well for me.

    Just be careful to lightly dab the grill to get the lint out... you don't want to get pieces of the claybar stuck in there.

    Ha, if you're are super anal about keeping the speaker grill clean, maybe this will do the trick

    JUST PRESS ON AND THE DIRT IS GONE!!!!

    I used a piece of tape, a piece of clay bar and some rubbing alcohol on a q-tip and it is as close to fixed as I think it will get. Hopefully the rubbing alcohol removes the adhesive that makes makes the lint stick.
