Eh? No hype, at least for me. Of the four PWs I'd been shipped, 3 were 501s and *all* were muddy and green, some more so than others. One was a 502 and it was brighter, though still green in spots, and also more pink, especially in the upper right corner. if you'd put all the units I'd been shipped in a row, you'd see a uniformity in color and vastness of the smudged areas, and the 502 would stand out as non-white in a different way. Mind you, it was only after receiving the third unit that I'd noticed the defects matched the serial numbers, and again, this is only in reference to the four I've owned.
My problems with this product for me thus far are not indicative of any trend. I've had my Kindle Keyboard for two plus years and have never had any problem with it. This is the first electronic products (and I've bought a lot of electronic products over the years) I've ever felt the need to return. Hype? Believe me, I wish it were so. It is not in my natural temperament to complain, and I personally don't enjoy further trips to the UPS store. It does not thrill me to have to speak to yet another CS representative.
So! I guess I just hope you didn't mean to belittle or minimize the frustrations of customers, including myself, who've been unlucky with their PWs! I dunno. Maybe you did?
