I agree it is common among LCD screens for phones. I beleive you can see it also with polarized sunglasses.

Had my HTC Touch Pro just replaced. I thought while I was waiting for my Sprite Restore I would see how other individuals made out in regards to this issue.

The general consensus is "replace it or live with it."

I am on my 5th TP now and only one has had the rainbow colored slick.

That also happened to be the only one that I put a wet screen protector on. Even the alcohol won't totally dry under the screen protector - it's not made to breathe and let it evaporate.

I just have a sneaking suspicion that it's screen protectors applied wet that cause it.
