    I'm not totally sure how led screens work, but I can see two well defined bright spots in my new 1330 that resemble bulbs showing through. Anyone else have/heard of this problem.

    That's sort of what I thought was going on with mine. Developed about 10 bright spots (some more than others) that looked like they were coming from deep behind the screen. It was CMO too. When I described it to tech support, she just called them dead pixels. I doubt that's what they were, but don't care since the end result was the same: a new, perfect TMD screen. For only two spots though....

    They need to hear "six," which might be the case if your spots are larger than a single pixel (i.e. you might have two clusters of several bright pixels ;)).
