Setting an example for any manufacturer that sells anything with an LCD screen on it, Nintendo is actually following through on its promises, and is repairing or replacing any new DS portable game console with even a single dead pixel (most manufacturers won’t offer a replacement or repair unless there is a minimum of three or four dead pixels). Even more amazing, some people are reporting that it only took a warranty fulfillment center four days to repair and return their DS to them.

Absolutely amazing. Nobody, except Nintendo, that I have heard of will replace an LCD if even only one pixel is dead. Taking into account, however, the screens are much smaller than your LCD monitor, but they do have two, which does amount to something.

By the way, I am personally considering buying a DS for the wireless capabilities and dual-screens.
