I was so afraid this would be the case, but was hoping I would be pleasantly surprised. But to be brutally honest, the new KPW screen when viewed with the light totally off shows fonts pretty close to the fuzziness level of pre-Pearl screens. The KPW screen with light off looks to be just better than the old pre-Pearl screens and much worse than the first Pearl screens. Yuk!!
Is this at a certain font size or something, because I'm looking at mine right now has I can't see any fuzziness like you used to see on some earlier generation devices.

I'm wondering if the lamination of the screen layers is better on some screens than others or something.
