your right, but i think the sun can do this too when in direct contact. I left my ipod out all day once and it got messed up. But after a few weeks it eventually went back to normal. This should be the same.

It happened to my solara when I was cleaning the cluster. I pressed the front clear plastic cover too hard and it happened. The next morning it fixed itself and never came back (unless I put pressure on the plastic cover again).
