Sorry, but I saw a Kindle3 and a "pearl" display, and it's more ugly than Vizplex.. The screen have as much noise as a first generation Kindle1, and it's not blacker than a current Vizplex screen. The white on the K3 is more gray than on my 6 month old gen3!

Vizplex or Pearl are only "name" they put on the same thing. The technology didn't magicaly change. The first eInk screen used on the PRS500 and the "Pearl" are strictly the same thing, only the hardware (and bits of software) around change.
