Any LCD can get dead pixels. My friend's father recently bought a top-of-the-line plasma screen TV and it has about 7 dead pixels, but since they are so tiny and the TV screen is over 40 inches, you don't notice them at all unless you hunt them down. I have a cheap LCD monitor and it only has one dead pixel in the corner by the computer clock, and I would have never noticed it unless I meticulously searched my monitor for dead pixels.

And the DS has dead pixel "problems" too, after a week of its release Nintendo released its dead pixel return policy, Sony just announced their's the other day.
