MacBookPro dvd drive - discs get stuck?

I've got a new 17" MBP, and within a couple of weeks it's already playing up - I've got a DVD stuck in the drive!

For a while, turning the machine upside before ejecting (yes, with it still running!) was enough to free discs, so I get the impression that the mechanism has shifted very slightly and something is catching.

Sadly, even that ungainly and somewhat scary action doesn’t work anymore. Searching the net, it appears that I’m not alone either. Looks like Apple’s quality control is slipping again…
