I'd really like to know how this pans out with PB Inc - mine's certainly out of warranty by now (it's about 16 months old I think) but in the past few months has occasionally exhibited a stripey (sideways only) line problem. Just as you've experienced, it's periodic, intermittent, affects some parts of the screen (and sometimes the whole screen), may be fixed by turning off and on, or just a page turn. I'd guessed at it being a software problem purely because of the intermittent nature of the problem, though it's been a while since I did a firmware upgrade on this thing (and from memory it didn't coincide).

Have seen it within FBreader as well as in system-settings pages.
