Hello,

I bought my psc-600 a couple of weeks ago and everything has gone just fine. I'm using calibre, transferring files fine, and having a good time reading with it!

I do have something that has come up today and wanted to see if anyone else has experienced it. It feels a bit nit-picky, but I wanted to make sure it wasn't indicative of something that might occur in the future. Or whether it is worth it to exchange it for another one.

When tapping the screen with the stylus everywhere, except for a patch on the left side, the touch screen is tight. it makes a plastic "tap" noise. But for that one patch, it's a bit more squishy. The print looks fine. And the response seems ok compared to the other spots (perhaps a negligible difference). It has a bit more of a "squish"/"tick" noise compared to the rest of the screen.

Anyone else have this?

Thanks for reading my first post!
