I've got a PRS-505, absolutly love it. The only niggle is that in bright sunshine the screen dims to about 50% contrast, making it slightly harder to read. If I put the reader in the shade during a refresh it refreshes fine.

At the time I seem to remember this was a common issue with E-Ink screens.

Can anyone tellme if the new Pearl screen suffer this same issue?

Thanks
