Recently updated, blue lines on screen

I recently updated the software on my 30 GB ipod video, and when the software finished updating and my ipod reset itself, thin blue lines now appear vertically on my ipod display screen. Does anyone know how to get rid of those lines? or should I take it in to be fixed??

Dell Vostro 1500, Windows Vista

Our problems seem to be the same. I tried reading an article on the website about LCD screens on the ipod and pixel anomilies. But I have absolutely no idea what any of it means. I need someone's help!

I don't know if someone else will jump in with another suggestion but, if it were me, I'd mosey on down to the local Apple store.
