White Screen, the unusual case

Hi peeps,
My BB has been acting weirdly lately. It's giving me white screens every now and then. Of course I searched in the Google about this problem but what I found were mostly white screens appearing randomly and the apparent solution was to remove the battery and put it back in *magical* half and hour.

Mine is a slightly different case. My screen only turns white if I grip it slightly tighter than normal and can be easily fixed by locking the keypad and unlocking again using the top left button. I got really annoyed by that behavior so I tried pinching on the sides of my BB to see if white screen appears. It freakin does! Whenever I press softly on the right side (just slightly above the 'hang up' button), the screen goes completely white.

Do you think this is a hardware problem? Does the warranty cover this defect?
I have only dropped my BB once....on a carpet, and that was a month ago and my BB is only 3 months old.

Yes hardware problem. Only fix is new device by means of warranty exchange, insurance, or upgrade. See it a dozen times and it only gets worse with time and use.

A warranty exchange, like beyondthebox said, is the only way to fix that apparent hardware problem. The LCD is going on it, possibly the hardware graphics chip too.

I think RootBrian is correct in saying that BeyondTheBox is right.
