HTC Touch screen dark area?

[calisoldier83]

this is weird I had my phone since january 08. I was replacing the screen protector with a new one, and at that time the screen had no noticable dark spots.

Fast forward the next day there are three dark spots on the lower portion of the screen. The last time I tried to get this Touch replaced the person working there wanted me to fork over 50 bones because I didn't have insurance.

What are you guys doing without insurance to get your phone replaced/fixed?

P/S Be Careful when replacing the screen protector, as it may be holding the lcd in a certain position that can cause these spots to show up after removal.
