Dark spots

I'm sorry if there has been other threads on this.

I have a Sony S360 and all of a sudden, I'm seeing 2 small dark spots on the screen in the middle towards the left. I'll see if I can post pictures.

Does anyone know what this is and how to cure it? Or should I use my Best Buy warrenty to replace it if it's not fixable?

Thanks

HI,
I have one dark spot on my S170P as well. It looks like keyboard rub! I do not think Bestbuy can warranty this issue. I believe the best way to avoid this is to use a micro fiber as a buffer between the keyboard and lcd when closed during transport. As far as getting the dark spots off the lcd, I do not have a remedy yet....

It looks more like a lighting issue, than a keyboard issue. You could be right though. I think I read somewhere that this is called ghosting or something. Not sure though.

The dark spots are called polarizer dents, they are caused by something hitting the screen. I had 3 on my old HP. Try to get sony to fix the screen, they might call it a defect.
