Slack3r, I'd be happy to plunk down $25 to replace my buttons, and have the tools necessary, but do you know for sure that a dummy phone has all the parts? I don't recall ever playing with the dummy at VZW to see if the buttons do anything. Most of us seem to suffer from the 'slipped disc' problem, but I don't think those would be present on the dummy.
If you think otherwise, I'm willing to give it a try for ya
I've spent more and gotten less more than I'd like to admit - LOL
