I got mine from the first shipment at my local best buy and it has a build date of 10/12, which seems to be one of the earliest I've seen on these forums. I've had no glaring problems--the earpiece and speaker are good quality (i have no "tin" sound or low volume problems that seem to plague a lot of other users), the build quality is fine, and the battery has actually lasted me a lot longer than I thought it would. I took it off the charger at 10AM yesterday, did some light texting, web surfing, a few calls, and nine hours later at 7 o'clock it was still at 50%. So no obvious problems so far...crossing my fingers...
