See, I am not SO critical if I am even satisfied how my outdated DGX displays my PDF files. Great contrast with practically most of light conditions, great resolution, clear, without any ghosting, looks pretty much like real white paper, doesn't stress my eyes. I don't need much more than that.

As I mentionned earlier, my DXG arrived REALLY refurbished. I even know the name of previuos owner (by the way, he has an Italian name, maybe it was yours before? - Just joking
) since my DXG arrived even registered with Amazon on previous owner and I had to deregistrer it and registrer back on my name). You know I even think I probably would justify its price for new one ($379) considering how much usage it gets in our family.
I have JBC for 12 days now. The biggest project I did with it - I was reading outdoor with it for about 2 hours. It took my eyes about 3 days to completely recover after that experiment. My eyes just felt very strange after that. So I am not doing it anymore. JBC is just sitting in our house and is currently used only for the tests you are asking me to do sometime
.
The current situation in our family is: If colors are important for us - we are using iPad 2. If colors are not as important we are using DXG and Sony T1 for our reading. If we need to learn languages or good electronic dictionnaries - we are using Ectaco's Partner device. If none of these devices are available at the moment (because other family members are using all of them or these devices need to be charged) while JBC is still available, then I would rather do other work, comminicate with my friends, clean the house or watch some videos, for example.
And in our family DXG is getting the most heavy usage between all the devices I mentioned above. So even $379 for new DXG is really not that bad.
