The lack of contrast is more obvious now as Kindle 3 now has the new Pearl e-ink technology which supposedly offers 50% better contrast (if you believe what Amazon advertised).

The screen on the plus is fully black and the same level of light gray background as the current EZReader basic. It does not suffer from the font problem of some fonts in the Pocket Pro where the font is not fully black, most notably on ADE. The gray scale 16 levels are excellent and shows the full black and full white available from Viziplex screens. An image looks like a black and white photograph for all intents and purposes. I believe no one should have a problem reading this screen.
The speed of the display is even faster than the pocket pro which was already faster than the EZReader basic. Compared to the EZreader basic it seems twice as fast, depending on the complexity of the screen display.
