This is what is posted on the Apple web site:

The affected iPhone 5 devices were sold between September 2012 and January 2013 and fall within a limited serial number range.

It's been a couple of days since we tried the "drain the battery and re-charge, twice" idea, and the phone is working better. Nowhere near like new, but much better than before.
