Totally agree! My PW2 had a really nice screen, and it was the first and only PW2 I had. I lucked out on the PW2. But the text was just too fuzzy for my eyes. I kept it a few months but finally had to admit it mostly sat on a shelf collecting dust. Plus I got tired of having to embed a font or turn all the text bold so I could read without too much eyestrain.

I'm still on the fence with my Voyage. I want to keep it, but will it just turn into a paperweight? I have to fiddle with it to get the lighting just right. And then I can still see the giant, but thankfully dim, smudge on the upper 1/3 of the screen. But at least it doesn't degrade the text. But the blue tint is annoying even though I can make it mostly disappear too. But it is like trying to get TV reception from a rabbit ears antenna when you live 20 miles from the TV transmitter tower. There will be a lot of repositioning until you get a clear picture. Last night I realized I was leaning funny in my recliner, then understood I did so to get the Voyage into a position where its light combined with the table light made most of the design flaws fade away enough to read. Hmmmm? To be honest all the Kobo images I've seen look just as bad. I see the same kinds of defects in them.
