I find that rather interesting. I was under the distinct impression that JB owners were really supportive of their devices suggesting the reflective LCD being superior to e-ink, but my travels around the web suggest that whilst the owners like them, they are either no longer recommending them, or wouldn't replace theirs with another reflective LCD.

Is this reflective of the changes in the market place ie: pricing of other readers and features, or has the pearl screen taken the lead in terms of quality over the LCD?
