Default My new TV has 3 dead pixels...

Just had a 32inch standard (not LCD/Plasma) Toshiba widescreen delivered
this weekend. All seemed fine, but I switched it on this morning, and after
watching it for a bit, I noticed 3 dead pixels.

How common is this? Are there likely to be more die? To be honest, they're
not really that noticeable, but when I think about it, I look straight at
the area where one is, and will notice them! Especially on white back
grounds.

So is a TV worth taking back over 3 dead pixels? If it was small enough to
take back to the shop, then I'd think yes, but it's getting the day off
work, to wait for the delivery of another one!

What are peoples thoughts on this? Or am I being very fussy!?
