    Just wondering if people are experiencing light leakage with their 8510gz. I notice on mine at the bottom edge doing the dead pixel test. It's doesn't bother me and I don't have any dead pixels so I won't exchange but just curious what other people are seeing.

    I do have little bit of light leakage on the top and bottom portion of the screen. However, it is so slight that I can only notice it in a completely dark room. I tried to pinpoint the problem to Bestbuy staff but they were too dazzled by the beauty of the screen to notice the light leakage. Since I purchased the 3 year warranty, I just decided to live with it if it's not a big deal right now.
