Dark spots on screen (not dead pixels)?

#1 Post by marlinspike » Wed Nov 22, 2006 9:38 pm

I just noticed (hard to see unless I have an all grey screen) that there are tow circles of darker area (slightly bigger than an eraser on the back of a pencil) on my flexview screen. Anybody else seen this? Does IBM replace screens for this? Do they consider a screen end-user replaceable (can't be without my laptop for even 1 day anytime for the next month)?

No, kinda central (well..like 40% of the way to the right from the left edge and 30% of the way towards the bottom from the top edge). I can only see them if I'm looking at a totally grey screen (and even then it's not blatant), so I'm willing to wait to get it taken care of, I'm just wondering if they will take care of them.
