man, this sux! I dont think i have that dead pixel there until recently. Is the dead pixel looks like a red or dark dot on the screen? I now know how ppl feel when they see dead pixel. It is freaking ANNOYING!
What should i do? Is there anyway to get rid of it?

Don't hold your hopes too high...but you might try "massaging" the screen gently with the "outside" of your finger. (Be careful not to scratch the screen with the finger tips.)

Just ignore it and keep telling yourself it's not there, then maybe it will disappear after some time.

After a while, you won't even notice it's there. Most dead pixels, you'll only see them if you stare at them.

There's pretty much nothing you can do about it besides trying to ignore it. The fact that you haven't noticed anything at all until just now means that it isn't really that eye-catching.

As others have already stated there isn't a whole lot you can do. You can try to massage it out, but one pixel is hardly anything to right home about. Though LCD manufacturing has improved over the years, it still to be expected that there is a few dead pixels.
