You want to return your n900 because of a white dot on the boot screen?

Hi
I got my N900 today, and when it boots up, i see a little white dot in the upper left corner where the rest is black. Ist that a pixel error ? If so, is there a tool to test or something to get rid of that ? Or do i have to give away the N900 to get it fixed ?
if the white dot is still there, it propably is a dead pixel.

It's called a dead pixel.
It's a pretty normal error in LCD screens. Even my own 15' TFT has one or two. You still might want to get a replacement if it bothers you too much.

some times if you massage the dot it can come back to life. Gentle finger pressure in a circular motion.
It is not 100% away, but getting better, so maby not the dead pixel thing. Or did i give the dead pixel a heart massage ? lol

If you can eliminate the pixel problem with a massage it's not a dead pixel, it's a stuck pixel. 
(that's the actual term for it).
