Exchanging the Touch

[Redbirdpat]

While I'm holding off on purchasing one until the screen issue gets resolved, I was wondering about exchanging a defective unit (there could be other issues). I'm eventually going to order off Amazon to save the tax. But if it's defective, do I have to send it back to Amazon, or can I take it to a local Apple store and exchange it for a new one? The latter would obviously be the preferred alternative.

Have to go through Amazon. Apple stores would be overcrowded if every single person that got their iPod from a reseller was able to exchange their unit at any Apple store.

That sucks. Just one more reason to wait until Apple gets the Touch fixed.
