DirkGently, I know what you mean, I'm not referring to that, I think that is a side-effect of how e-Ink 'refreshes' the page, and gladly suffer this for the many advantages of e-Ink (battery life, resolution, clarity, etc.). This seems to be more of a random 'region' issue, where a rough oval or circular part of the screen will 'appear' lighter than the rest. It almost looks like the font-letter thickness in that region is thinner than anywhere else on the screen. If you focus on it, it disappears, but if you sit back and look at the screen as a whole, it looks like a ghosted patch on the screen. Might just be the way words composed of thinner letters align on the page, but i doubt it.
Anyhow, it's not a major issue, just not something I ever noticed on a PRS-505 that I used for 4 years, and something I've noticed on 3 distinct units of the T1 (within a month)
