Maxx HD - Is this normal? Frame sticking out by volume rocker?

This makes the volume rocker and frame look "rough", when I think that's just the camera and flash accentuating ribbed nature of the volume rocker (unless it's not? Lol). Anyway, does anybody else's look like this around the volume rocker? I can actually push it back in just a tad on the top side of the rocker, but not on the bottom.

If this is the way it is, well, so be it. If it's not, and nobody else has this issue, I'll be exchanging it later. I've done nothing to this phone but hold it in my hand and set it on my bedside table. The VZW rep put it in their black hard-shell case, which is very tight and hard to get off, but other than that, this has been babied during the whopping 16 hours I've had it.

Yeah mine does that a little bit, too. Didn't really notice it until you pointed it out, though. Been in the snug silicone case for 99% of the time.
Sorry I pointed it out then :p Like I said, if it's normal, I'm fine with it. I don't mind the way it sticks out a bit, it does bother me a tad that I can push it in and out above the rocker.

I noticed Droid Life's post yesterday comparing the Maxx and regular HD had some good camera shots. From overhead, it looks similar, but from a side/angle, it looks much more flush. Also had a couple of replies over in the Moto support forums by users who aren't seeing it at all.

That is not the way mine is. I have 2, and neither of them look like that. they are both flush with the frame and nothing sticking out. I'd say take it back and exchange it, just don't let them put it in a case. I have a white & black one and didn't see this issue with mine.

Just my $0.02

Mine is flush, sounds like you got a defective model. Take it back and get a new one. You've noticed it already, it'll bother the bejesus out of you the entire time you have the phone! And these phones are too awesome to hold anything against them from the start.

I believe the volume rocker should be sticking out and frame should be flush with the phone. Take it back man and don't take no for an answer.
