    Has anyone heard if they have switched the monitor, or if it still has the less than noticable lightleak?

    Supposedly after the first month or so of shipment, they fixed alot of the light leakage problem. Of course with LCDs, you are going to have some sort of light leakage. On mine, it is very minimal. In fact 90% of the time, I never notice it whether i'm watching dvds or doing normal tasks (ordered mine about 1 month after it had been released). The only time you'll probably really notice it is when you are booting up or if you have a completely black screen saver.

    Well, that is reassuring, I know some other people wrote that it is unbearable...but I just wanted to know what other input people have on this matter,

    Is it try that only on the UXGA+ screen?
