So that you have 2 non irritating ones now doesn't mean (hate to be a party pooper) that you won't have more in future. I've been going through withdrawals after I returned it and drooling over various readers but Opus and K3 just win every time. What a pity about PW.

Thanks for your thoughts, hon. That's something I didn't consider, hmm. I think I still I have to keep the old one with the specks and take my chances it doesn't get worse. I can't keep the newer speck free one as the screen is quite pink and annoying to read on. The older screen is much whiter and more even, plus the text is also darker. If they get worse maybe I can drop Andrew an email and he'll be willing to send me another replacement. If not, I guess I'll just have to live with it if it gets worse. Fingers crossed it doesn't. I agree it really is a pity the PW has had so many problems because it really is such a nice reader overall.

I'm happy with the older one and reading on it is fine as I don't see the specks when reading. I have to say again I am really shocked that even the newer ones can look quite bad. I guess it really is luck of the draw.
As for the fonts, the font on the PW on the left is Georgia fat (which I got from Katsunami) and the font on the PW on the right is Gentium Book Basic, the font you gave me.
(I really like those two fonts a lot.) I'll attach the pic again so people don't get confused which pic I'm referring to.
