    Hey guys!

    I've started an Ideastorm posting describing the plight of many E Series owners who discover that they're (even newer) Latitudes begin to show extreme wear and tear on the top parts of the display bezel only after maybe 2 weeks. The black paint just seems to come off quite easily, and the only way to fix this is to get Dell to replace it with another bezel.

    The solution seems quite easy, just put two more small rubber pads on the monitor itself instead of just the two on the palm rest. As those two aren't enough to support the bezel to prevent it from scratching on the palm rest. Anyway, if you've run into this problem please vote up this issue on Dell's Ideastorm: http://www.ideastorm.com/ideaView?id=087700000000SyFAAU

    Thanks,
    Eric Huang

    OK, I've done my bit. I was surprised to discover that I was already registered.

    Ah! Didn't notice that. Now done (but I also voted for anti glare screens).
