Thanks Dan and Tony, but the battery isn't dead at all. Other than that switch that allows you to dim or light up the display (and, from what I'm told, saving on battery use) the entire phone works fine. Just the little upper right-hand corner no longer depresses at all. It is obviously some type of defect, but I was just wondering if it is a common defect, one that others have encountered.
