Anybody have this problem? I have many, many specs of dirt/dust INSIDE the lcd. Well, I guess technically it's between the lcd and the outside plastic cover. Am I the only one with this problem. Please do tell. I need to know if this is a common problem.

i got some dust in mine. after maybe a week. i think there's a gap by the hinge. was gonna maybe try blowing it with a can of compressed air to push the dust to the side. i'll let u know if that works

Nooooooo, don't do that!!! That'll only create more dust. Trust me, I've tried and it made it worse. I had to bring mine in to Audiovox to have them open it up and flush out the dust. Even now there are some dust in there because they didn't do it in a dust free environment. He was surprised to see that much dust inside though.

I had the same problem, but i wasn't going to pay somebody to clean it. I just took it apart myself. For instructions goto

My 9100 has developed this problem as well. Not sure if taking off the faceplate will help or not.

Suggestions?
