ditto. i got mine a week ago and reasonably happy with it. admittedly there's noticeable aberrations at the very bottom of the screen but for me it don't distract too much.
one thing i'll say is the 'paperwhite' thing is really only applicable during the day when the light helps to reduces the dull grey of an unlit e-ink screen. in darkness however the screen is not even approaching white with the light on...instead it takes on a sort of washed-out muddy hue unless you really crank the brightness up...in which case you're left with a very bright display that's no different from an lcd.
i do notice the extra resolution especially if you reduce the text size. i find i can read stuff comfortably at much smaller text sizes than i could on my k3 or kdxg. but for me the bummer is amazon's typically shoddy software support. the pdf viewer is identical to the stunted one that comes with the touch. clunky zooming and no way to hold a zoom setting across pages. the refresh rate of the screen isn't fast enough to scroll about which is obviously the way they want you to interact with pdfs.
time to read is really nice but it annoys me amazon are withholding this from earlier skews that are perfectly capable of implementing it.
