Question on final assembly and inspection of 60D

[Geezer]

As soon as I got my 60D, naturally I charged up the battery, slapped on a lens and went out for test shots as soon as possible. I was immediately a bit surprised and disappointed on what I saw through the viewfinder. There were about four or five fairly large pieces of dirt which I found to be lodged between the focus screen and pentaprism. So after finding out how to remove the focus screen (nothing mentioned in the manual) I was able to clear out all the crud with a bottle of compressed air and get back to shooting. I can't see anything nasty in the viewfinder now, thank goodness! And I have taken a very close look at blank white photos taken with the camera and can find no sign of spots.

I have been a Canon SLR user since the days of the 10D and have never run into quality issues like this until now.

I am wondering if anyone else has run into similar experiences (?)
I am also wondering if there might be any more scary surprises lurking in this camera...

Mine is clean.  Nothing anywhere that makes me question the product quality.

Mine is completely fine, too. But I've heard that before - not only in case of 60d. It's actually a problem each company that is manufacturing something has to deal with. Just 3 month ago, I found a Kids-Wax-Pencil in a bottle of beer...

I had battery problem, and later charged battery full. And after that it's all fine. No problem of dust till now.

Mine came completely clean too. No problems at all as of yet.

Geezer, is the focus screen like the 7D, or is it a standard screen like the other XXD's.  Just curious. 

My 5D MK II also attracts stuff above the focus screen, Its annoying, but eventually, I learned to ignore it, I'd spend all my time cleaning it otherwise.
