Help screen bleed?

Ok so I just got my phone recently. Haven't had a problem with it so far. I just heard about the screen bleed issue. I noticed the top 2 corners bleed a little after using the "iDraw" technique. This shouldn't be a big problem right, since it's only noticeable when the screen is all black. I did hear that gingerbread will come with a taskbar that is all black, and that the the bleeding may distort that.

Anyone else think that this is a large issue? I've heard people returning their phones 5 times. I feel like I could live with the bleeding.

Thoughts?

I have the same, but very slight and only noticeable if you really, really, really look for it. I don't think it will be a problem with the all black nav bar either. The way I look at it is I would rather have this very slight bleed and be able to have a screen bright enough to actually see when I am outside in direct sunlight. It's a nice trade-off, and one where I would prefer seeing the whole screen every time than worry about hunting for a slight bleed in a dark room.

The phone has everything I would like in a high-end phone, and works great. It's fast and has plenty of room for app storage and if I need more I can add an SD card. If I need more battery, I can pop off the back and exchange one as needed (can't do that with a lot of phones available these days).

I'm quite happy with my G2X.
