I've noticed it as well, and was planning on mentioning something 
about this earlier.  If a lot of the top row of pixels are black, it 
looks fine -- it's just when there are a few black ones on the top 
that it seems to affect the whole screen.  (Mine's version 1.4).  I'd 
also suggest that unless there'a border around the whole screen (i.e. 
the top row is entirely black), then the top row isn't used..  Just a 
suggestion.

Later,
