PRS-600 Screen burn-in?

scottjl · 12-10-2009, 02:38 PM

I got distracted by something and left my 600 running, the power manager eventually shut it off. Today I noticed there's a faint ghost image of the main menu page in the screen, it even persists after I opened a few different books and flipped pages.

Is this normal behavior? Will it go away? Any tips on cleaning it up faster?

Thanks!

The ghosting image is normal. Usually just one or two page turns and the faint image should go away. Instead of putting the device into standby mode do a full power down and power up to see if it clears the problem.
