Well, I mean, I don't think it should get much looser in a reasonable timeframe. My brother owned a 6700 for 2 years, and now my friend has had it for nearly two years. It's had the crap beaten out of it forever, and the screen has even separated and looks oily--like a few threads on this site...

his slider still feels like the day my brother bought it... so I think these things are supposed go last for a very long time...
