You know, just a thought, but comparing hacked devices (Even if it is only to add fonts) is not exactly a fair assessment of the two readers. After all, the screen is only one aspect of an ebook reader that determines how readable it is.

Overall, for reading text, I believe that the Kindle3 screen is better than the competition, but I also know that the Competition will likely catch up in short order. Further, using a Sony PRS-505, the difference in the screens is not dramatic enough that I would switch readers -- others might, but not me.

Certainly, the advantages in using a more open DRM environment is more important to me than the advantages of the new screen.
