It's true, I have a dead pixel on my screen!
Probably can't do nothing about it, huh?
And I have a soft scratch in it, too, and it was already there when I got it...

Does anybody else have such a problem?

From experience with ipaqs i am aware that these screens can be damaged fairly easily,it wont be long before service centers will be busy replacing screens, & i think it could break SE`s bank account, because some will be on warranty, i would like to know the cost of a screen as mine also has little dots of damage that i can feel when jotting.
The pixel problem is also common on ipaqs, they often arrive like it from new.

I haven't got the p800 but it seems to me like a REALLY good idea to keep the buttons on the phone for protection purposes.. I certainly will(I've understood that many takes them off).

Also would it be possible to use screen protecting film on the screen.
I'm thinking it would make jotting and such hard pluss it might make the touch screen thing not work at all...
Don't know about you but I'll do EVERYTHING possible to ensure that my future p800 lasts as long as possible.

That screen protector film does work fine & i`m waiting for some, (expansys do it) problem is the p8 is better for some functions with the (horrible) flip off.

I have removed my keypad because I think it look much better.I always make sure to put it in my pocket without any coins or keys and put the screen side against my leg..

Same here... no keypad. Currently have regular screen protector...waiting for Brando version which will be out in a week or two. Also hoping for a belt clip holster for P800 similar to the T68 belt holster.

For those of you who think the keypad is good protection for the p800 screen - think again...

I had a p800, and had the keypad on it (plan was to remove it as soon as I got some screen protector film and cut it to size). When I happened to put my laptop bag on the phone (I know, sacrilege, but it was an honest mistake), the keypad actually bent in (but didn't break) and broke the screen...

just to make sure you heard : the keypad broke the screen...

If the keypad had been on, the screen would have been recessed from the surround, and the bag being put on it would not have affected the p800 at all.

Moral 1 : the keypad is too flimsy to be considered protection, use it or don't use it based on your usage preference, not it's perceived safety.

Moral 2 : This phone is not like your t68, t39 or whatever. That size of screen, and a touch screen at that, is a lot more fragile : so BE CAREFUL...

I'm thinking the keypad will protect it from scratching..
And it WILL help a little against pressure(if only slightly).
