I've only had my new iPod Touch 4th generation for a little over a week now and there is an annoying whitish-blue stuck pixel. Actually, it is hard to notice except when the background color is dark. But at any rate it annoys me and I'm looking for stuck pixel fixers for the iPod Touch.

Thanks!
 
Just tried two methods: that flashing video with all those bright colors (almost gave me a seizure but alas, still the stuck pixel remains), and tried to vigorously tap on the pixel, but perhaps I was too gentle (I don't see how this method can work!).

I had a Canon T1i digital camera with stuck pixels, but it was easy to remove those. There has to be a way to fix this, correct?
 
Nobody has ever had a stuck pixel? I keep reading about apps for stuck pixels but no further information. Such an app, I cannot find!
 
Apple has a 0 policy on dead/stuck pixels on iPhones and iPod touches, send it back and ask for a replacement...

I did twice!
 
Thanks. I'm considering sending it back, but since it is only one pixel I thought maybe I could "map" it out somehow. It's not noticable except if the background is dark. We'll see. I'm shocked that there isn't any apps on iTunes for this.
