They probably will say that, but it's still worth a try I think. I think the glowing specks are pretty common in a lot of the batches though, not just the 604 batch. I really think getting a good one is just luck. I saw specks on more PW's than I didn't, various batches, but I had to look hard to notice some of them.

My current PW has a couple, but fortunately for me I never see them when I'm reading. Mine are very tiny and it's hard to see them glowing unless they are directly over a dark cover. Good luck, I really hope you will be able to get a new one. I truly cannot believe how bad the QC is on the PW's.
