Help Defective screen?

[crazydog]

So I just got my Xoom today, and I've only had it out of the box and powered on for an hour and fifty minutes.

I noticed then when I put a little pressure on the screen (as if I'm tapping something), I get a distortion in a specific spot on the screen. Most LCDs will do this if you put too much pressure on the screen, and then at the point that you are applying pressure. My Xoom does it in the same spot no matter where I touch the screen.

I'm sure if I take it into Costco they'd exchange it right away, but it's rather disappointing that I'd have to do that. Does anyone know if this may only be temporary? It did ship from somewhere near sea level to where I am, at 7000ft, but I really doubt that's the issue.

Yeah, that's what I'm thinking I'm gonna to send it to 'em cause there's no Costco up here. The problem is I don't have a Costco card, so I'm not sure how easy it's gonna be.

It took guts but I pressed on my screen hard and had no distortion so definitely do as marctronixx said
