As an update, the blotchiness I was noticing actually isn't in the lighting mechanism. It was something on the screen, maybe oil from my finger, or something else. I wipe my screen with a microfiber cloth, and now it's much clearer. Must be an artifact of how the lighting worked that the blotchy locations looked brighter, but they come and go now as I wipe the screen.
The light bleed at the bottom of the screen is not that terrible. It's noticeable, but nothing that detracts from the experience. It might also be variable, and something that they'll work out as they produce more units. I wouldn't return mine because of it, probably.
Right now, my biggest problem is that the syncing isn't working. I even factory reset mine, and syncing worked one time. But once I moved elsewhere on other devices, syncing broke again. At this point, the Kindle PW is completely out of sync with my other Kindle apps, and it's driving me batty. They MUST fix this one pronto.
