This guy's review really makes me wonder. I don't mind/welcome the differences from Kindle such as no buttons on the sides, the joystick, I love the higher resolution considering how I'd like to view PDF there from time to time. But the ghosting and the contrast ...

Perhaps he just got somewhat faulty piece?
I have noticed the same thing. In fact, I think it's a deal breaker for me. I guess I'll end up with the K3 when all is said and done. Hopefully it's a software issue and not an inherent quirk of the particular screen they're usinig.
