Is it possible I've gotten a bum PW? Does the touch overlay result in a softening of text that's not there on the non-touch K3? Does anyone have ideas? In general, I like the PW, but I'm just OC enough, that fuzzier text may result in a return. Any thoughts would be most appreciated.
Some other have reported the same fuzziness with Text. There seems to be a quality control issue going on with the PWs. You can call for a replacement which is what others are doing.
