        I just bought a samsung jet today and saw something liquid or oil at the middle of the lcd. It follows wherever I press on the screen. I noticed it only when I got home and wondering if this is something I should worried about. Is this a defect? This is my first time to use a samsung phone but I've never seen anything like this in any other touch phones.

                  I had Nokia 5800, but it really didn't turn out to be how I expected it to be. So I started my quest for the next best phone - which wasn't too expensive.

                  So my search came down to two mobiles, Samsung Jet and SE W995.

                  And I went with Samsung Jet, and I've gotta say I ain't really happy about the choice I made. :'( But well! I'll be stuck with this for at least a year for now. Anyway here are what I think are the pro's and con's of this phone.

                  Pros:
                  Nice Screen (8/10)
                  Awesome Audio quality (9/10) [better than n5800]
                  Nice camera (8/10)
                  Supports Divx files
                  Looks very stylish
                  Easy to use
                  It's Fast (cuz it's a Jet)

                  Cons:
                  There is a common lcd leak problem, and I'm victim of that too :(
                  Poor Wifi (n5800 has a much better wifi quality)
                  Phone browser SUCKS
                  Camera flash is tooooooo bright, problem occurs esp with close-up shots.
                  It is really a finger magnet, and gets really dirty
                  It's not very customizable

                  The thing that I hate most about this phone is WIFI. Anyway, I hope this helps.

                              ==================
                              I HATE TO HAVE BOUGHT THIS PHONE because of the SOFTWARE and NPCS.

                              Applications:
                              - Java Apps placed under games and there is no way to move apps to another folder or microSD

                              - Some Java apps does not work (e.g. Not compatible)
                              - Out of memory on large PDF or TXT or WORD documents. only about 60 pages of a txt document are opened.
                              - Low responsive scrolling in the DOC and PDF viewer.
                              - There is a size limit in the apps
                              - Skype does not work
                              - Route 66 is one of the worst, least user friendly software in the world. Too many problems
                              - Platform is closed to developers for proprietary OS

                              Editing:

                              - No directional button when editing text. It could be the volume buttons.
