What would cause one side of screen to flicker?  T40p

After opening the lid and resuming from sleep, the right side of the screen 
flickers. It is quick enough that it appears only the icons flicker; I do not 
see the background go black. It is not at a steady interval, but a few flickers 
grouped together at random intervals; it has stopped flickering for a few 
minutes now. Moving the screen does not recreate it. It has not been dropped or 
otherwise disturbed recently. 

Does this neccesarily indicate a hardware issue? Is it likely to be a 
connector/wiring issue or the screen itself?  I have a service contract, but 
don't care to waste a call. 

btw, the tpad list has been quite useful over the years.... thanks to all.
