2007WFP backlight bleed

Last night I received my 2007WFP. Shortly after setting it up, I noticed I had a respectable backlight anomaly in the upper right and left hand corners. It's pretty ugly. But no dead pixels!

Will Dell replace this one, or should I stick with it? Would I have to pay Dell the shipping fee for a replacement?

    If it's a replacement then they will pay the shipping.

    I received my 2007 FPW yesterday. All seemed well until I played a DVD. There is a very noticeable back light bleed at the top of the screen. It is about 6cm wide and starts about 2cm from the top left corner. It is not to do with viewing angles as it is very prominent regardless of where you view it from. It is also niceable in a lot of games. Though there aren't any dead pixels - which was a major worry!

    Can I get the monitor replaced?

    I'm really annoyed about it as I thought this sort of thing had been fixed - the Apple display I use at work is basically the same (though not as bright!) and thar monitor is uniform.

    Thanks
