    Was I right about the battery door? I have seen everyone of at the store with gaps. You lay it down with water somewhere and we are screwed. My only real complaint so far is the poor battery door. Very bad design. I hope there is an aftermarket one.

    First one had it my new one does not. Like anything else, there is some variance.

    Love the phone though. I disagree with your speed, keyboard etc statements. Mine is definitely faster than the Storm (rep had one with 151 and we did a comparison. He said the same thing) and I love the keyboard.

    I hope mine doesn't wiggle when I receive mine in the mail this week. Either way though, I'll be using a BlackBerry gel skin so it shouldn't matter much.

    Mine doesn't fit real nicely. But, my screen is also set in a bit crooked, which will bother me. However, I'll wait a few weeks until everyone's received their first units before I exchange.

    Although I have to wait until next month to upgrade, I could not wait to see the Tour in the flesh. The flimsy battery door was my main concern. I visited two stores. Both examples had gaps in their battery doors. Hopefully, these were the result of the security devices attached to the battery doors

    Mine fits flush, like a glove .

    No problems. Though, I still wouldn't want to "lay it down with water".

    The bottom of the battery door on mine has a little gap but I have a skin on it so it doesn't really bother me.

    uhhh...you put it in water and you're screwed no matter how well the battery door does or does not fit.
