    hi, i just bought my w3j today and i love the machine.. however

    when i press on lid VERY VERY Lightly, or try close it, i see a little ripple spot in the bottom right region of my screen.. its a small water ripple like thing and sometimes it seems kind of bright..

    even if i dont touch it, it is brighter than the other parts of screen.. like a dot..

    is this a defect? do i need get it exchanged?

    I had the same with my W7J its like the ripples fade away after you have touched them. Even if you close the lid and open it really quick you see the ripples on black background. They replaced my screen and the inverter. SEND IT IN.

    the w3j usually protects the screen much better than that
