I started watching the video to see about highlighting, I've only used it once to look up the definition of word, probably the primary purpose of the function and found a huge problem with the video. The first section was on the lighting and showed the glow being very blue and overly bright. The user never reduced the intensity of the Glo during his demo and they continued to look blue which he did in fact mention. This all irritated me enough i really never got into the highlight portion.
I just took my Glo into a completely dark room and turned on the glo.. No blue at all, not even a smudge or tint of blue. Either that guy had a defective Glo or was trying to improve the Kindle's desireability. Sorry to cause a problem, but no GLOs (that I've seen_ three) are blue and Kindle's have a good bit of blotchiness.
Could someone else with a Glo check theirs' and post. My Glo and my daughters' and the bookstore all have dead gray/white screens when lit.. I hate to see a great product unfairly presented..especially when competing, the giant of the industry.. makes me wonder..
