Firstly, in the future make sure nothing but 100% cotton touches that puppy, and no other liquid besides Klearscreen and distilled water, because the coating is highly fragile. I do not know of a way to have it repaired, and I know that it is highly annoying (about as much as dead pixels on LCD monitors). Unfortunately, I don't think there is an easy way to repair the anti-glare coating. It's applied on the glass before the monitor is assembled, so I think they would have to put a whole new tube in there if you sent it back to the manufacturer and thus it would be almost as expensive as what the monitor originally cost you. Hope this helps.
