If you buy or bought an iPhone 3G in an O2 shop, took it home, then discovered a problem with it, could you return it to the Apple Store instead, and get them to exchange it for a non-faulty one?
I have an iPhone 3G that has a display with a really poor viewing angle. Ive compared it to other iPhone 3Gs and its noticeably sub-standard. When you look at it from the left side, the screen looks really light, and the blacks turn to light blue and wash out. When you look at it from the right side, all the light colours go yellow, and the dark colours invert and look polarised.

I have a 3G iPhone purchased in HK. It does work in Japan with its HK number on a roaming basis, but id like to know if i can purchase a Japan Sim Card (from SoftBank i guess), prepaid or with a contract attached, to be able to use it in Japan with a local number.
More generally, is there any place where Apple is giving some support to international users to help them sorting out those cross-country usage issues ? Obviously local providers (HK or Japan) are of very little help on the matter...
Thanks

The mute button came off my iPhone the other day during normal use which I have since discovered this is a fairly common problem but had never heard of it before.
My problem is I bought the phone while on holidays in Italy, and they are sold unlocked their by apple due to laws in the country. However apple support said they cant help me unless I have an address in Italy where they can pick up and ship a return/replacement to. Apple said this is covered off in their warranty but from looking their plant in Ireland is their european HQ. Does any one know if what the support people have told me is correct ?
