Where to get the new iPhone 4 torx screws?

Since the first promotional pictures of the iPhone 4 I liked the look of the torx screws at the bottom end.

The so far used phillips screws don't really float my boat.

Now as the torx screws have become standard, does anyone know, where I could get some of these to replace the phillips screws on my phone.

A fitting screw driver would be also very useful, of course.

Greetings,

Andy

They are not Torx screws. Torx screws have a 6 pointed star pattern and the new iPhone 4 screws have only 5. Even if you did find the screws, it is hard to find screwdrivers that will match the screw heads. However, if you do insist on getting the new screws, take your phone to the nearest apple store with a warranty claim and whether you want it or not, they are more than likely to return your phone with the new screws!
