Has anyone had issues with their 2011 MacBook Air display's LED diffuser?

I have a bright spot or "splotch" in the lower right of my display (11 inch). It's noticeable at all angles but dead center (natural viewing). I noticed while demonstrating the Air to a client. Actually, I believe she noticed it. I had been happily using it for 5 hours before she pointed it out. Now I can't avoid noticing it.
Sigh.

Considering an exchange, but this has a Samsung 128 GB SSD. I'd also have to go through a factory restore over Lion.

The issue looks like this: http://sites.google.com/site/ltechprojects/pacturescreendamage

My 2010 MBP does not have this issue.
