Mpc touch yellow staining on screen

There's a few mm of yellowish backlight bleed on the right and left sides of my screen most noticeable on the grey screens like MAIN. Photo to follow later, assuming I can get it to show up.

I know cheap screens suffer from this and its pot luck on the severity, just wondering if anyone else has got any type of bleed on their Touch?

I do not have that issue.

I'm back in the office now after switching off the unit for 3 hours and the yellowing is gone, so I'm thinking it's related to the temperature of the screen as it had been previously running for approximately 9 hours.

Nothing like that here, but perhaps it could be a heat issue. I have mine on 3 hours or so, but never as long as 9.

It's back again this morning, as soon as I turned it on. Am I just being picky? I don't think it's bleed, it seems more like staining as on the black boot up screen nothing shows (bleeding would definitly show up on the black screen)

The iPad 2 had the same problem at the beggining, apple said it was due to the glue not being completely dry or something like that. I can see those on my unit too only when it's grey, but mine are definetely slimer than the ones in your unit.
This from the apple forums:

[...]I noticed this to on my ipad air the yellow tint was on the left bottom side and I could only notice it on white pages for example safari[...]
I found on other ipad post that this Is the glue that hasn't dried yet as they are "fresh" out of the factory and this disappears after a few days. Anyway hopefully it gets sorted out and enjoy they ipad!
But maybe other thing

I've sent the pics to Mike at MPC Stuff, hopefully he'll know what this might be and whether it's likely to disappear eventually. I read about the ipad glue thing and there does seem to be a general attitude that most LCD displays exhibit this problem to some degree, especially cheap ones, I'll see what happens over the next few days.

Send that unit back, it looks defective.

Just checked the Touch that is on display at the place I work at. After running 8 hours, no signs of staining. So I think heat is not the problem. Looks defective to me...

Yeah, I've just contacted the retailer about getting a replacement sent out - have to send my unit back first which is a pain, so I'll get the review done first

Glad I'm colorblind.

oh man, that yellowing sucks a fatty!!

I reckon at least 20% of stuff I order online has something wrong with it, but I think this is the first time I received a faulty MPC. Well, unless you include the MPC1000 with the original crappy pads and the MPC5000 OS.
