Bought the 37" LCD in November 2008 and LG's tech wall-mounted it. Smudges that looked like fingerprints, some light and some darker, started appearing by Jan in the top right quadrant, and began to spread. Complained in March, by when an Africa-shaped smudge had materialized dead center. After 6 weeks of followup, LG replaced the panel in May 2009.
By October 2009, the smudges started again, on the new panel! Complained again, just before the warranty expired on Nov 3rd, and LG obligingly replaced the panel again, in 4 weeks this time.
In December, the smudges return!
I'm now torn between trying to understand what's going wrong and wanting to call in an artillery strike on LG's HQ .
Has *anyone* else out there seen anything like this? (see pic) I'm at a loss what to do, since the warranty's expired.
