Playbook problem
I bought a Playbook a few days ago and for some reason the back of it there feels like to be a bubble in the middle of the casing.
Also if i press down on the back of it i can see the casing in the middle move. is this normal for rubber casing for it to do this? could this be classed as a fault or not? i got it from PC World so know they may not do anything about it. |

I keep mine in a proper Playbook case anyway |

This is a common problem and is widely reported on the Crackberry forum. It's know as a bulging back panel (where it won't lay flat). RIM know about it and will replace it.
http://forums.crackberry.com/blackbe...wollen-691037/ https://www.google.com/search?btnG=1...k+back+bulging It has been fixed with a hair dryer after pressing it down firm with a pen but this could be dangerous so I would just return. Update: It seems to be down to either a battery issue or overheating. |

Is this really an issue?
My kindle keyboard, has been creaking since day one and if I press down on the back it moves. Many sent theirs back and got a replacement. I've kept mine and it hasn't fallen apart and still works after 2 years. |

So is it wise then to take it back to PC world and ask for a new one?
Ive only had it less then 2 weeks so will they do anything or just tell me its normal? |
