Seems like its a some what known issue you can maybe exchange if it bugs you enough as it seems some people have
Thanks, I have several posts on that thread. What I'm *trying* to determine is whether there exist units that fail my image test (show a line), but have OK text somewhere with bright sunshine. My replacement unit shows a line, but so far the text looks OK. But I'm not sure if it will STILL be OK in the sunshine come August.

When I told Sony the replacement unit had a detectable fade, they told me it was normal and offered to give me my money back (if I paid shipping to return the product). If I find that there are people with units who pass the image test in bright sunshine, I'll try pressing them again. If there are units who pass the image test, but the text is still OK, I'll ship my original unit back and be more or less content with the replacement unit.
