I used to hate the white ones. Got the black 5 and went back as soon as they had more stock and swapped for white. The black anodized finish scratches so easily...

Interesting, are you having bad cellular reception too? I ask because I've been having signal problems recently (AT&T) , and I've talked to a couple friends, who also have AT&T, and they have been having problems too( delayed/missed/dropped calls, receiving SMS hours after they have been sent).
Also noticed that my last couple of text messages sent to fellow iPhone users aren't being sent via iMessage.

iMessage is working for me today, I haven't tried FaceTime since I rarely use it anyway.
Edit: only works if I send a text, but not when I receive a text message.

So Apple store didn't replace my phone. $150 and they will swap out this one. Just ain't worth it. Gonna order about $30 worth of parts and do some surgery. Hope I can manage to get it back together one more time.

The only part you need is about 5.00 from what I saw to fix the power button

The button itself is shot. And the back part is messed up too. Should still be a cheap fix. Just everything is so miniature. Gotta use picks and tweezers to operate on them.
