Missing pixel!!

---

So I opened my phone and as soon as I opened up a white screen, I noticed a nagging MISSING PIXEL! I know it's a bit paranoid but one would expect their product not to have any effects after dropping close $600 on it...

I called HTC and their warranty department says there are 2 options: 1) they can send a new phone, or 2) repair this one. Taking the first option, they would charge my credit card full price of the phone for the time being, then send out a new phone and I send mine back. Once they realize the defect, they will refund the money. If you send it in for repair, not only are you out of the Nexus One for 2 weeks, but they also charge a $28 service fee (nonrefundable), and in the end probably replace the phone anyway. I'll probably take option 1.

Anyone have missing pixels? (Try looking at some blank white screen to analyze)

nope not me

I am afraid to check. If I do and I find one, it will drive me crazy. I sent back 2 dell flat screens in a row because of a dead pixel on each of them.

I suppose I better find out now, and not when its too late to do something about it.

I wouldnt worry about getting dead pixels too much. the AMOLED displays in the N1 are Samsung -- high quality stuff

Which is fine, but checking is a good idea. You can get a pixel fixing app on the Market that helps you test for dead or weak pixels. If you find one, then tell them to send you a replacement.
