Does anyone else think that the keys on the T68 are crummy?

My keys creak when pressed and the feel I get when pressing is that it's going to break.

Did I mention that when you press on the back of the phone (on the battery), it squeezes in a bit?

Feature wise, this phone is the best there is. I'm not very impressed with the build quality though.

-battery doesn't fasten on tightly
-keys creak
-scroll key rattles
-yes/no keys are loose (probably from having to press Yes so often)

same problems here as specified above. I also checked various T68s at stores, so I guess that this is the normal build quality. I also want to add the fact that nothing has gone worse in the 2 months I have been using mine. (I had a 7110 before, and as time went by, I started having problems with the roller, active cover and the battery holder)

the same problem with my T68, as mentioned above, the battery, keypad and the volume key is not fitted well, its pretty much annoying thats why i used this cheap plastic holster so i will not get irritated everytime i feel those shaky things though it lessen the elegant appeal of my T68 but at least less irritation and adds protection to my fon too, cheers

when i got my t68, i noticed a slight difference in the YES and NO buttons. the YES button seemed a little loose. brought it immediately the morning after to sonyericsson's service point and they replaced the keypad. now everything's fine.
