Once I get it black it'll be PERFECT.
Bill_D,

Have you received your 'Black Woodgrain' PRS-950 decalgirl skin yet? Would you mind posting pictures when you do? I am considering ordering that skin, as I would like to replicate the NON-SHINY look of the PRS-650 as closely as possible. I love many things about the Daily Edition but find the glare when using a clip-on light especially annoying.

(Of course the skin won't help with the glare from the chrome controls and trim, but perhaps there is a solution for that, too. Gaffer's tape, if I want to be ridiculously obsessive about the issue, maybe? Then I may address the problem of the lightweight smaller font sizes, which are part of reason I am using a book light more frequently than with the Kindle3, in purposely dim night-time lighting.)

Thanks in advance if you decide to respond. Thanks also to those who have already posted pics. I appreciate getting a better idea of how the skins look IRL, especially since the images on the vendor's website don't really show the areas left exposed by the skins.
