I believe too that the dent is caused by a defective mould. If it's either a dent or the silver paint coming off, I would have accepted it. A dent + silver paint coming off is too much for me to bear.

It's not possible to get another new or refurbished unit since the replacement is in good working condition.

I've decided to get a full refund. Reason is I've a 5-year-old Palm m500 & 3 year-old HP Jornada which are still looked better than the replacement Axim - no dents or paint tarnishment - and in excellent working condition despite regular usage. Maybe I'll consider getting an Ipaq instead. And I'll be returning the PDair case which is being shipped to me & try to get a refund.

Many thanks to those who have posted replies to this thread. I appreciate your help :approve:
Mine has the same "dent" in the same exact location. I believe that this a plastic molding issue and not really a dent. Running my finger over it, it is difficult to feel the dip so it is quite shallow. The high gloss paint makes it more noticable. I did not notice this on the prior two units I had. However this unit seems to be much more stable so I am not going to worry about the small cosmetic issue.
