I've had my 505 in Florida and I've not noticed it getting toasty. Also, we are in the summer weather here in MA and still not toasty.

I actually had to copy the image into a paint program to check this, I was convinced you had to have made a mistake. If you copy a small portion of square B and move it around, you can actually 'see' it get darker as you move it towards square A. |

I used the same theory, but not to make the screen whiter. Instead, I bought the silver one, because it makes the letters seem darker. And actually, from your OI-pic, the A seems better readable for me than the B |

Yup--I had to open the drawing in photoshop and prove it to myself and my hubby. Neither of us believed it.
Interesting observation athlonkmf...I have a silver 505--was kind of wishing I had the blue for better contrast, but I agree with your point--the letter on the A square does seem darker. dordale |
