This is quite likely a loose hardware connection. There's a thread here somewhere with a link to the hardware manual. You need to take the unit apart and check all the connectors going to the screen.

The caveat to this is, if you've recently loaded any software, that should be the first suspect. Barring that, though, I'd fall back to the hardware fault.
