Btw. In bright sun light the colors become almost not washed out .
Very good light conditions are a prerequisite for a good experience on this device, maybe that's also a good thing, it reminds you that your eyes also need very good light conditions for prolonged reading sessions.
i assume this is because of how color eINK is made (color filters over the individual pixel... need good light to go through the filter, lose some magnitude from the filter absorbing some of the energy, bounce back out to reach your eyes)

when I get one, I'll try to post a HD video of it in bright sunlight vs my kindle DX G (and my friend's ipad2 if I manage to borrow it)
