"Stage Lighting" at bottom of display
Hi,
Twice now my display locked into a mode which looks like stage lighting. The first time was just before I discovered I had a defective battery. The second time (just now, and 3 weeks later than first event) happened simply as I was updating my iPhone software.
I think this happens when the screen would normally dim prior to going into screen saver. I get 10 pairs of backlights (?) fully illuminated from the bottom, and full illumination at the top of the screen.
I've posted screenshots at the following url:

This recovers when waking from sleep, or waking from screensaver, but only after multiple attempts.
has anyone seen this problem before?
