If you got it from a local dealer see if they can exchange it for you and make you happy. I just got my TT3 and hope there isnt dust... Justin

Dust used to be a problem with sidelit screens, but backlit screens are usually sealed at the sides and not susceptible to dust. It's possible that your dust got there during manufacture of the screen. Are you sure it's dust and not bad pixels? __________________ Regards, Tanker Bob Tanker Bob's PDA Page Reviewer at MobileTechReview
