LOL, don't believe that for one minute, they didn't have a recall because they didn't want to waste the money. Early and very late built units seem to not have the problem which means its most likely a bad batch of LCD driver chips they got during mid production. Since this would require a PCB replacement to recall and fix the units would eat away at whatever profit margins Nokia got on 770, which is nothing compared to profits they make in sell cell phones. imagine if the same problem happen with their cell phones do you think Nokia would have done nothing? Nokia is not a consumer friendly company and the last thing Nokia is about to do is be...welll...consumer friendly.
