Mine is from first retail batch, it developed 2 of those spots 2 weeks ago. A little frustrating, but for the moment I will keep them because everything else works almost flawlessly. Let's hope it is not a first simptom of something worst - I had a WSOD 770...

I'd just tighten the screws again (you need to be careful not to overtighten anything with a plastic case - it's easy to strip threads or cause a crack) until the parts all fit tightly together. Haven't had that problem on my Treo since I started using a hard clear case though.
i have another issue too since removing my screen protector and that is that my touch screen soumetimes makes a clicking/crunching sound. quite worrying really tho it seems to be working fine.

Probably makes no sense. But there you are.
same here, it looks to me like its fading but my gf doesnt think so. will keep an eye on it tho. i have another issue too since removing my screen protector and that is that my touch screen soumetimes makes a clicking/crunching sound. quite worrying really tho it seems to be working fine.

I took my N900 to repairs last friday (Verkkokauppa.com, Finland) and today i got it back. They changed the screen with no extra costs or questions. Yay! I guess that if the spot is visible, they will change it if you haven't broken it yourself (no visible damages on screen).
I had it visible on bright colors like terminal or google.com.

If you want to reduce the time on repairs, first get the warranty receipt from the store you bought it and then take it to the actual service center yourself. Usually they send the devices to repairs via post office. This is what they told me at Verkkokauppa.com.
Mine was at Anglo Service or something like that in Helsinki.
