That would appear to be plastic discoloration, not the display.

Oh, and speaking of a nation of whiners...

Yuck. Not sure if urine-colored iPhones are more appealing than poo-colored Zunes, but they're definitely a close tie.

my screen seems fine! camera has a yellow tint to it though, might be the light in my lounge or the poor camera?

Well, it has been proven that yellow is much easier on the eyes than pure white. Apple is simply looking out for our best interests.

Is it possible that it's a color profile issue?

That "yellow" looks similar to my new iMac sitting beside my Cinema HD ... kinda yellowish.

I got one with a bad volume button (16GB-BLK) and took it into the store. I also noticed that the screen looked different than my original iPhone (8GB). In addition the the yellow tint, the new screen has differences in contrast.

I compared my 1st gen iPhone to about 10 of the 3G phones. They all looked like they had the slight tint and contrast difference. I'd be interested to know if anyone got a "good one". At first I was worried about the whole iPod touch screen problem making a resurgence.

At 75% brightness the tint is only noticeable when next to a 1st gen phone. There is nothing "wrong" with the new one - just different.

Apple was happy to replace my phone. Overall, the new screen seems a little more vivid. Looking at notes on the old and the new, the new looks a lot better. Also, I find photos do as well.

One final thought - is it possible that al the 1st gen phones have faded over time?
