White Screen

I have had the white screen issue a year and a half after buying the phone, so, naturally, it's out of warranty. ($28 to look at it, and $161 to over $300 to fix the problem). I have a Safeware (www.safeware.com) cellphone warranty, but they don't cover manufacture defects. This is DEFINITELY a manufacture defect - just look at all of the users on this website mentioning it. We need to come together as a group and get HTC to fix this problem, not only with our phones, but also with future HTC phones. I love my phone when it works, but I rely on information on my phone in a pinch and cannot afford to waste time trying to get my screen back when it goes white. I have the 8525 and want to upgrade to the tilt or the Fuze when AT&T gets it (In November, I have found on some sites), but I see the same thing happening with the tilt, so I don't expect the Fuze to be any different. If HTC can't help us then perhaps the Iphone should get our business, instead? Are there any lawyers with this same problem who would like to help us in this battle?
