by and large I don't get much of a glare unless i'm in an ultra lightining area such as brightly lit department store. Which I wouldn't be reading there anywho. But if you are one who glares bothers in the slightest you can always buy a skin for it. It being a white bezal does help with it not having to much glare. Just compare it to how much glare a black piano back bezal such as most HDTV's are. White glossy is much much less reflective. But as I said you can always put a skin on it.
I love the lcd screen. I don't find myself looking up and down if you are I think you are thinking too much about it. You have to remember it's only 6.5 inches from the top of the eink screen to the bottom edge of the lcd screen so its in total range of view.
I seemed to find between Prof. reviews, amatuer reviews and user reviews and on different forums that the majority of people are finding that the more they use the screen and get over the learning curve of it's navigation the more people are loving it.
you catch on really fast, faster than any smart phone.
I do love it and could not think of navigating on a Kindle or something else. The Kindle and the likes seems very outdated.
