The touchscreen sensitivity issue has been there from very beginning and I have strong feeling that it is getting worse very rapidly.
I cannot agree more. It's 3 weeks for me too and I have used much more the left side which is not affected! There is a small possibility to be the firmware; I leave that possibility open since I don't how the pressure is registered or if you could compensate the lack of sensitivity in 'special' areas. Most probable cause though seems to be faulty hardware.

This is really scary. I only hope that this is only in the first or some specific batches and that later it was fixed. Many others seems not to have this problem which must mean something like that.

Nokia makes really good devices and the 770/N800 look like they were made from a different company which used the logo.. This doesn't mean that I am not in love with my N800!
