I will wear it to the Telus store to do my next return.
what do you mean by keyboard issues.?

Do you have pixel issues with your TP2 display? (READ post before voting)

I have purchased three TP2s for work after showing the partners mine. I finally got around to activating them today and one of them had a minor but visible stuck pixel (white on a black image). I have been running the youtube video posted on this site that flashes different colors to unstick them for the last ~30 mins and the pixel is fixed. I really didnt expect this and had already sent in a request to my corporate rep but it worked!

You can try the link here

Only issue is that it is formatted for a regular screen so if your pixels are on the top or the bottom it wont help. If someone knows of a properly formatted video, please post it. Hope this helps.

I made a 800x480 version of it in Windows Movie Maker if people would like. Download I also uploaded it to YouTube and will post that link when it's available.

EDIT: YouTube Video

So you ran this for about 30 minutes and you finally got your pixels unstuck? I have one stuck/dead pixel right in the middle and I ran it once but the pixel is still stuck. Should I run it more times?

Yup 3 little stuck pixels, but I can hardly notice them. Not sure its even worth it to send back. I can see them on start up and in the camera can only see 1. I'll try the dark room later....

I just tried the full screen tri-flash colors for about 2 hours and no luck. Still have the one stuck pixel. This is kind of bull $h!t . Time to order my second replacement...

This doesn't cover the whole screen, so the area where my stuck pixels are outside the flashing colors area.....Is there a way to make it cover the whole screen??
