I'm sure you're right, but when I compare the screen of my Kindle Touch side by side to those of the Kobo and the Sony T1 that colleagues at work have, the screens (in terms of the "blackness of the black, and the whiteness of the white") sure look the same to me. There may of course be matters of individual preference when it comes to such issues as the choice of fonts available, but that's a different matter.
