Yeah, the Daxter bundle is one giant plastic mess with the system on top in a seperate slot and a box with the cords, game and 'Family Guy' UMD at the bottom.

Going back now...hopefully I get a good one.

Swapped it out and have a flawless system now (first try!)

Hopefully I won't develop any fixed pixels...that would suck. I didn't even know it was possible.

I did your typical Google search and find that there were a lot of reports around launch of dead/stuck pixels, that it's "inherent" in LCD technology, and that I might spend a whole day at Wal-mart opening every PSP until I find one that's uniform. Thoughts? Advice? Experiences? Thanks!

Cool. Mine has no dead pixels.

I agree, the new box for the PSP Slim is just atrocious............it makes the packaging look so unsafe.
