8ma sounds fine. Unlikely to be any problems there then.
Yes, that's really strange though - first one I've ever heard off with any voltage regulator issues. What country are you in? If you want to send it back I can fix it for you, or I could send you a new voltage regulator chip if you're happy with SMD?
By the way, it's a 3.3v MIC5205, so the part number is MIC5205-3.3
