I've had my Reader for about 3 weeks now and only recently I've noticed a strange grey area within the screen. The 5mm borders of the screen are still fine, but there's a totally rectanguar area in the middle which just stays determindly grey.

It's especially noticable when I turn off the reader as the section in the middle where the text appears is visibly darker than the rest of the screen. The ghosting in this area has gotten really bad as well with the screen off, not only can I still see the initial TOC, I can even see the text from my last book! I've tried a soft-reset and fully charging it up, no luck.

Has anyone had this problem?
