"Of the 5 co-workers that have PSPs only one has a single stuck pixel."

Of the three guys I know (two of which got one opening day) all have stuck pixels.

Guy 1: 2 stuck
Guy 2: 2 stuck and the "button issue."
Guy 3: 1 stuck

So I don't think it's FUD. BUT I think the "squeeze/twist disc eject" rumour is. All three were pissed, but I don't think it bothers them any more than the 2 stuck on my LCD monitor that I paid $400 for!!! And it definitly isn't as bad the the 17-in trinitron I bought brand new that green screened me in a month and that took Sony another month to send me a new one.

Sony has quality control issues.  :-(

You got to understand I used to be Sony's biggest fan, but now I just don't know I'll wait and see.

In the meantime it's DS for me. I love Nintendos games.

I must admit I was MIGHTY HARD for me not to buy a PSP. It definitly is a cool geek toy.

Update Comment on Sony PSP TFTs...

Japanese release had Samsung TFTs...
American release had Sharp TFTs...

Samsung TFTs are really reliable.

I bought a Sony. To tell you the truth I thought the color was a little richer and I paid $50 less. In a month I had3 stuck pixels. You think I would have learned by now this is my third consecutive Sony purchase that went bad. (PS, 17-in CRT, then the TFT)

Wish I had bought the Samsung.

Samsung is today what Sony was 10 years ago.

Like MS, I think Sony got so big the head don't know what the A$$ is doing.

Didn't SOny buy and promptly kill Pychnosis somewhere along the way?

"but the ps is a 10yo product"

Well those were the big purchases I guess. And yeah, not quite ten years ago I bought a PS. after less than a year you would have to turn it over, then turn it on for it to load. One of my buddies is on his third PS2. (Out of fairness his first one broke as a result of topple.)

Sony fan? Go for it... I couldn't give a rat's, BUT I'll not be buying Sony stuff anytime soon.

To each his own.

Pixer Fixel? :-)

How does it work?
AND
Do you have a link?

I have tried a number of things in the past. I think some say massaging them will sometimes work. Never has for me though.
