How many dead pixels did your PSP have?

I just went out and bought the PSP Value Pack as an impulse buy when I stumbled upon a clearance sale (little under USD 135). Pretty nice bugger, bought it mainly for emulation purposes, but it seems to have one stuck blue pixel. I'm told that this is a very common problem. It's not irritating enough to go back to the store to change, so no biggie there. Might try some pixel-fix video at some point when I buy a bigger memory card.

Anyhoo: To all people with PSP's here: how many stuck or dead ones did your PSP have? }:)

    Both my dad and brother has a PSP none of them with dead pixels. Sorry about yours though, where is it on the screen?

    Mine has one dead (properly dead) pixel in the top left.

    I'm not really sorry myself, since it's not too bad a result with my luck. :) So far, the only handheld (having bought 5) that hasn't had a single dead or stuck pixel was the pink DS I got me' better half. And as for the PSP, It looks like it's in fact a vertical row of two pixels, stuck showing blue. It's around two centimetres northeast from the center of the screen. It's nothing overtly irritating, so that's good. Me' better half's PSP had 3, in fact, but all spread around the edges evenly, showing white, so they're not bad either. She said she didn't even notice them to begin with.

    I just got mine downgraded, the one my gf got had some trouble with that and a friend of mine is looking into it. Anyhow, I should be able to download one of those "epilepsy" -videos that flash red, blue and green screens constantly, that have said to work on some stuck pixels, so I might still have a chance of getting them unstuck.

    So, as far as this thing comes, I'm in the average class, I guess. I'd just heard some horror stories about people with something like 19 dead pixels upon the first startup. :D
