There is no point in arguing this, I respect your opinion, however, please don't accuse me of spreading false information when so many others have experienced the exact same thing.
Look, chas, it's not an "opinion" that IR touch screens don't impact screen clarity, but a simple statement of fact. There is nothing on top of the screen. If a reader has a poor quality display it may have a number of causes (perhaps poor font rendering) but it's not the fault of the touch screen. How can something that's not physically there affect the screen?

When I do a side-by-side comparison of my Kindle and my Sony PRS-350 (which uses an IR touch screen) the appearance of the screens is identical.
