I wonder, though, if it won't depend on the N2 model, like the ghosting? I've seen pictures of the ghosting that were just...WTF. I would not be able to read that at all. And yet other users have said that their units have not ghosted at all. Could the font rendering issues be similarly unit-based? I'm not up on the technical details enough to know.
It's not a ghosting issue. The unit I tried at B&N did not show ghosting.

I would think it would not be individual unit based, but the only way I can be sure is to go back to B&N and use a different unit. I'll do that sometime. When I do, I'll take a photo of both the nook and the Sony using my cellphone (cheap shit crappy ass camera on an iPhone 3G). I don't think B&N would allow me to bring my better camera into the shop to take photos. But for now, unless someone says otherwise, I'm saying no to the nook.
