My first PW was a 501 batch [I ordered it immediately] - the shadows at the bottom of the screen are quite pronounced, and the screen was not uniformly white - more "muddy" appearing. I kept it because it had none of the color splotches that other members had described.

When I place the 2 side by side with the same light setting, the improvement is quite obvious. I'll try to take some pictures this weekend & post them here.
Congrats! You're the second person I've heard of with a 603 and they said the same thing, they said the screen was amazing. *has screen envy*
