For what it's worth, I've just bought my first Kindle today. I haven't seen any of the photos posted here but I've been watching this thread for a while.
At my local BestBuy, I examined the new PW and saw what sounded like the descriptions here. White, small, and like a tiny pin hole. One clearly visible near the bottom of the unit on display. It wasn't on the outside of the screen, though, so not dismissable as a damaged display unit. I wiped the pin hole, but it couldn't be moved or altered. It was simply brighter than the surrounding area, and it clearly wasn't going anywhere.
A tiny defect, but over the next year or two it would drive me to drinking again. $69 Kindle for me.
FWIW
