So, finaly I had the possibility to test M92 and Amazon Kindle DX (2nd gen.) side by side.

The whiteness of white on screen seems to be the same (or at least comparable), if you make a white paper frame to hide gray margins of K DX.

The darkish frame makes the illusion, the K DX's screen is brighter (whiter) than that of M92.

So, the screen seems to be of the same quality, but the perception is different because of different framing.

It is hard to say, what is better. It is probably dependent on user's needs and preferences. I personaly prefer white frame, as I use 'hide margins' mode and the frame serves as white margin of the page. The price for that is a bit grayish white, comparing to dark frame.

But the difference is not big. Both solutions are good and screens well readable.

It is good that M92 will be available in both - white and dark framing.
