I brought mine to Verizon and they replaced it without any questions. But it was within the 30 days. So far, so good with the new one.
OK, figured out more clues to what exactly caused this on my phone. If i'm indoors the sensor works fine and the phone wakes up from black screen once pulled away from head.
But if i'm outside in sunlight, as soon as i dial a number the screen goes black and nothing will wake it up unless you take it out of sunlight and move it indoors. And no, its not the screen getting washed out from sunlight. The phone screen locks up until you go indoors or the other person hangs up first. Btw, phone call stays active during black screen.
I took it in Saturday to the local Verizon store, and was over my 30 days (purchased on release day), but the manager was very cool, and gave me a brand new one. This is my 3rd Droid and finally this one is running flawless **knock on wood***

I have had issues with this when running setCPU with a maximum sleep cpu setting below 250 Mhz, so when the phone attempts to answer a call it remains in this lowered cpu state and does not respond as quickly as it should (20-30 s slower). This only pertains to people who are rooted with this program.

Mine was doing it with the barebones installed programs. It happened inside too, so there must have been an issue with that phone. My new one is working without issues so far.

My three week old droid has been doing it occasionally as well. I have had enough of it today and am exchanging for another droid (3 days left before 30) WooHoo!
