I´m Glad then ... anyway, it was probably not a problem of the E-ink itself, but of some kind of blocking filter processing in the glass over it ... and I would think that as such it would also apply eventually to this new type of screen.

It was a faulty process in the tercerization of e-ink screen production, given to LG ...

And I know of other brands that DETECTED such problem, but actually even screened their readers to identify and change the screens of the faulty ones. If I correctly recall, Astak was one of these brands.

Therefore, I would not waste "typing" in defending Sony ... as it is not the idea of this thread in the first place to attack sony, but also they (I think) Do not deserve any kind of defense.

I would like to know if I can buy a new sony reader with no fear of malfunction due to this known problem in older readers.

If no one reports a faulty screen, then it is "party time" and Sony finally left behind that nasty faulty chapter.
