ive seen this on a few now - it must get in through the speaker holes or the edge gaps, drawn onto the screen by static maybe?

Are you sure it's not dead / stuck pixels? Or is it deffo dust?

Speaking of dust, my K750i was full of it after a week or 2... I doubted SE would take it seriously as a problem so I didnt bother to do anything about it.

If it's dead pixels then warranty it... that's a fault with the screen and a definate warranty claim. I am on my 2nd PSP for that very reason.

If it is dust then to be honest I reckon you'll just have to live with it as I cant imagine they will do anything about that.

Check with them though, you never know. It's always best to go the offical route 1st before to get the T6 out and open it up...

I doesnt sound like dust to me though.

Try working on a building site and see how phones last!

The older more robust ones were definitely better sealed, and the nokia's with express-on covers made cleaning a doddle!
