I stay far away from devices that have known issues. The Asus TF is one of the devises known to have light bleed, choice is simple, take it or leave it.
You don't have any devices, then, do you? LOL...

I ordered 4 TF from different places and they arrived at different time. The first arrived, it had a gap in the front of the panel as well as at back of the panel. It made creaking noise! I returned that one. The 2nd and 3rd TF arrived. Opened the 2nd one and it was perfect...no problem at all. The 3rd one as a gift which I gave over the weekend. The recipient opened the box and found no problems...it was also perfect. The 4th one arrived yesterday. Again, it is intended as a gift and I don't want to open it.
Seems like it is a hit or miss.

What issues does the xoom have besides the high price? But compare it to what's out there and it seems to be a steel in my opinion. I dont think you're going to see qulity material in future tablets because Asus Acer and soon Samsung 10.1 are proving that cheaper made is more profitable.I thought you said you had a Xoom???
ROFL!
Back on topic... I just got done calling Asus for the 6th time since the 5th of May (when I first submitted my request for an RMA). The first rep I spoke to today at first said that they had the tablet... when I told him that that was impossible because I still had it in hand he then told me that the RMA info had been sent, and proceeded to resend it. I waited about 20 minutes, and when it didn't arrive I called AGAIN. The rep I spoke to the last time finally got it to me. I can't believe it took almost 2 weeks just to get a RMA and the accompanying return into! I'm now torn because I only have until the 2nd of June to return my tablet to Amazon and get a full refund, and according to Asus's customer service rep the servicing will take 2 weeks. Given the service I've received so far I don't know if I can trust them. Buyer definitely beware, it's too bad too since it's actually a damn fine tablet everything else withstanding. Tsk tsk Asus.
I'm done here guys sorry to take up your precious time.
I just got my Transformer today from Walmart.com, and also experiencing light leakage. Not sure if this is normal or not. I notice it mostly when brightness is turned up with something dark on screen. I only have the light leakage on the bottom of the display in two spots to the right of the center. Attached a picture.
To the guy with the RMA, I'd honestly return it for a refund and try and re-buy it rather than mess with an RMA to Asus. Like you said, they do seem kinda shady with RMA's. Might want to use nowinstock.net to find a replacement. My phone has been blowing up with txt alerts like crazy the last day or two. Seems a lot of places are getting shipments now.
It's only been one day for me, gonna give it a week, if this light leak absolutely drives me crazy (OCD), I'll probably return it and try and get another one when Walmart gets more. Can't beat their return policy, 90 days to return.
