I'm not sure of course, but I think the crypto is just there to show you that this guy is gonna be smart and it foreshadows that little wordplay which occurs later in the episode.
However, that's not to say that this particular crypto can't be solved for real. I just doubt that the solution will be relevant to the show, for obvious logical reasons. But it could still be an easteregg of sorts for the audience.

update... new stuff

Okay so here is the twist. It appears this cryptogram uses periods and commas in the code… it is not just punctuation. Below the puzzle you see there is a key to the “previous weeks puzzle.” He is working a puzzle in a news paper. In the key are a period and a comma.

Here is the code that is conspicuously obvious in the opening scene.

Lkiqtqy jqyy, zhkkeyn whpw .e, ,uayuw pfoyqw zpdie

Opening thoughts. This is very conspicuous and totally consistent with the a motif they should be developing in the show. This detective will be decoding the tats on Scofields body. Now the codes are appearing in the show itself. Huh.

Promise Here...

I noticed the dots and was glad to see other did as well. I am not sure how pull it from the source material but could it be binary? We would have to assume that there is no more than one zero between any two ones.

Also! I will post again shortly, there is another code in the show! When the new detective guy (FBI) or some such... makes his first appearance he is doing a cryptogram and there is a very obvious close up of the material. I will pull the puzzle from the re-recording I made this evening. I will plan on rewatching it for more. More to come.

I was briefly thinking of a Polybius square, but that would require groups of 5 dots somewhere, wouldn't it? Anyway, I tried it and it spells gibberish so I didn't pursue it any further.

I think it's strange that the message is written and spaced to fit into a block of three lines, but that could be nothing. However, the message itself seems to be a clue and I suggest you add it here:

Putting the dots right somehow? I don't know, but it sounds clue-ish to me.

If it is a phone number, it's not one that we can dial Sad

It could be a phone number

if you transcribe the dots to numbers:
3221243324
4221312231
23133121

add the columns down:
9755867655

(975) 586-7655

Morse code with only dots tho? There were no dashes at all.

edit: Okay, you wanted a screenshot, here's one: http://www.flickr.com/photos/56264445@N00/221602383/

Please note as I didn't feel like waiting for a torrent, this is literally me just taking a picture with my camera of the tv, so I can't provide any better quality then what you see.

Prison Break Code

So, at the end of Prison Break, you see that Michael wrote Sara a note, and at the bottom of the note there was a series of dots. I don't have a screen shot, but this is what I thought the dots looked like:

Code:

... .. .. . .. .... ... ... .. ....
.... .. .. . ... . .. .. ... .
.. ... . ... ... . .. .
