This is different from the normal occasional previous text impression that you get, this is a constant noticeable (or more noticeable) almost like faint white ink transposed with the text. For instance, when reading a book, I can see light impressions of the numbers on the side which will remain until the 2nd or 3rd page turn. I was wondering if anyone else had noticed such a thing, any recommendations, etc. There hasn't been any new banging of the device and I'm left with the impression that this may be a time related thing.
Vizplex is not supposed to be ghosting. I would suggest you contact Sony for warranty repair. It seems you have a problem with your screen. I got my 505 in October 2007 and no ghosting at all.
