Screen burn in?

Does anyone know if screen burn-in is a problem on Garmin units? I have the 60CSx, and there doesn't appear to be a screensaver if the unit is left on for a period of time.

When I'm actively using it, I often switch between screens, but occasionally I leave it on in my backpack while hiking/biking/etc. I usually turn off the backlight, but I still don't like the fact that it sits on the same screen forever.

Has anyone who has had there unit for a while noticed a problem with this?

These LCD screens do not suffer from burn-in.

As Lutz has said, screen burn only affects CRT displays. LCD does not suffer this issue at all.
