Well, i was in a Best Buy this morning and they had a few in stock. I grabbed one knowing full well the issues people have been having. But I figured I'd play with it for a bit and see what I thought.
Gotta say, I love it. I think it's actually perfect in the 3 possible reading situations I operate in, though it needs adjusting for each. Brightly-lit room and the PW on full blast, it works great. Regularly-lit room (which for me is no artificial light sources but enough natural light to read by) and I shut the PW down to 0 (as 0 as it gets) and again, perfect. Reads just like my old K3. And then when it's dark I put the light on a touch and again it's an ideal solution. I see the shadows on the bottom, and not everything is perfectly uniform, but for the few times I ever read in the dark it will work fine. Better I think than the clip on lights.
So for me, I'm really happy with it. As I say, it's like it adapts well for each situation I would use it for. 3 readers in one. And add in the new (to me) bits like touch screen, cover view, time to read, the absolutely awesome texture of the screen itself, etc, and I think it's a damn-good reader. I imagine the tech will just keep getting better, but I feel like this one offers the best ereader experience i've had so far.
