Well I have heard of this happening but I was the victim to it starting yesterday. The bottom portion of my screen is unresponisve to touch. I can not text message or use the space bar.

The screen is in perfect condition and looks great but the touch sensor went out. I use this phone business so I just don't know how I can get this repaired while going without a phone?

Has this happened to anyone here? What should I do and will Apple step up to the plate and help me? How long will it take?

Thanks for the help!

Yes, it happened to me and many others. It's called a dead strip. It's a hardware problem. It's not fixable. Apple will give you a new phone. I exchanged mine at the Apple store in 2 minutes.
