800 Dead Pixels

[BlueSauce]

After 24 days a line of dead pixels appeared across the short axis of the screen. The N7 was sitting in a stand on my desk when it happened. I'm sending it back Monday (RMA) and getting a replacement.

Additional thoughts:
With all the problems I've seen here on the forum and experienced first hand I'm thinking about going with a Transformer Infinity or maybe even an iPad.

Update:
I got my new Nexus 7 yesterday and so far so good. I decided to stick with the Nexus and give it another chance rather than going with another tablet.

Is it possible for you to post a picture? I'd be interested to see exactly what it looks like. Also, did you have any issues leading up to the defect?

I had the same thing. It looks like a dark but very thin line forms on the screen and never goes away.

I'd probably need therapy if that happened to mine lol. Dayum.

Ugh. That utterly sucks. If you are looking at a full sized tab, I'd look hard at either the Asus Infinity TF700 or yeah, the new iPad3. Either one is awesome and after the display on the 7 I think you'd have a hard time going back to a lower res screen. I have a like new Asus TF201 that just sits now that I have the TF700, so if you want one I can sell you one cheap. With a rooCase

There it is. It is almost invisible on a dark background:

That makes no sense at all. Why not just replace the N7? .Any idea how minute a percentage of total units shipped had problems? Me niether..but I'd be very curious.
