Dust on inside of Screen

I have noticed recently, after having had my tablet for 2-3 months now, that I have a smattering of dust on the inside of my screen. It is near to the buttons at the base of the screen. It is not an issue at the moment in that it is not noticeable when there are colours on the screen but you can see it when the screen is black. The worry of course is that this will spread.

Anyone else had this issue? Any comments?

Just to close this off, in case anyone has this issue, I contacted Storage Options via their website and they will exchange my device for a new one.

Now to work out how to save and transfer any apps I bought plus ebooks I put on. Hopefully there will be a thread on here which tells me how to do that.

If you have a look on the forum, the dust issue that has affected some tablets (both mine have it) has been around since the very 1st Scroll tablet brought out in 2010. It does seem to be that the main entry point is around the buttons.

I have a plan... As for paid apps - If you got them from Play(market) then if you use the same email address on the new device there will be there to download again (no need to buy again) but your data and free apps would be lost. Titanium backup Pro would solve this issue (but it costs about £5) I use it all the time and find it very handy when flashing different firmware. Saying that there are other good backup apps, just not used them so can not recommend them.

Hope you get this sorted, all the best.
