Anyone with the same problem?

While travelling over a bumpy road or track, The corners of my Ti TFT start making 'waves'. It is quite irrittating.
I think it is caused because my two halves of the screen are getting further apart thru wear and tear. (I use a backpack)

Djeez, give me one of those Pismo's. Those were battleships.

Isn't it funny that when the Pismo was the latest-and-greatest, all people did was complain about how shabbily it was supposedly built?

Kinda like the way that today's kids are always much worse than we were at that age.

I remember the flaws of Pismo, I had about 7 of the 1999 and 2000 models.
Still, it was a reliable machine. This..this..this thing, with 768mb in it and a g4 500 hasn't proven it's extra value yet.

While I have not used these "cushions "for my Ti, it would seem reasonable these would aid in stabilizing the dynamic forces exerted on one's Ti's screen in shelpping them about in a backpack, and as such, might aid as a "preventive measure" for the wobbling issues you describe...
