Hello everyone. I recently bought a Jetbook Lite from overstock.com after reading good things about it. When I tried it I noticed that the screen was almost unreadable in ordinary light. Even sitting up with a 60W bulb about a foot and a half to the side of my head I had to angle the screen and read it on a slant. Sitting at my desk, the device had to be almost directly under the light source and sliding it toward me a little made the screen almost unviewable. This seemed to me to be contrary to what I read in the reviews, and was not going to work for me, so I have requested a return authorization. I like everything else about the device, though, including format support, SD card slot, and replaceable batteries. Is the screen generally well viewable under normal lighting conditions? Does it sound like I experienced normal behavior and the screen is just not going to suit me, or does it sound like I got a defective device and should order again from another vendor? Since I can't go try one out in a store, it would nice to get your thoughts before I took another shot. Thank you for reading this.
