Keypad letters/numbers coming off

[kpoker]

They are starting to peel off. I went to store, they want my insurance to pay for a new phone. Seems really dumb when there has to be a spot to just put on new numbers. Theyre basically glue adhesives. Any suggestions?

same here. 4 keys missing off my Droid 1. sucks

Yeah, im hoping someone has solved this

I read that this was from too much typing on the keypad. Just wondering if that seems like it might be why with yours. My D1 (replacement--first one) seems okay, but I don't use the keypad as much as I thought I would (I think it's Twitter's fault, I don't type long unless on a computer keyboard).

I do text a decent amount but it would seem since these are put on with some adhesives, there would be a replacement pack for the letters.

Still no solutions or advice on this?

I'm sorry I dont understand -- what do you mean "a spot to put on new numbers"? The whole keypad is one piece of plastic.

Well its cut into individual squares. Some of these squares are coming off. Eventually they will all go. Are there any places who could re-secure these or any keypad stickers as extras. I definitely dont want a whole new phone and seems this has happened before. I have the motorola droid, are any of the new droids much better then this one? Maybe I could get a new one, hate to though.
