Good luck, xtine!
Ha, yes, I wish we could go to Amazon and pick out our own. Although I'd probably end up with a huge stash of opened kindles!

I still don't know what to do with mine - I've realised that I only really like reading on it with the light right down to the minimum, when I turn the light up, even slightly, then for some reason it just becomes annoying. If I didn't already have the K3, I would probably be happy with the PW but it just seems a bit silly to not use the light when it is after all the point of it.

Thanks Yolina.
I'm really ok keeping the earlier one. I read on it last night for awhile and it's really quite good, the best PW I have had, for certain. Hopefully it stays as it is and doesn't get worse. I'm just so glad those specks don't fall in the line of the text, I'd have to return it then.
I agree it might not be worth keeping the PW if you will never use the light. That said, if you like the design more, I suppose it might be worth it then. I'd probably use it exclusively for a bit and see what you decide. What I love about the PW is I can read in bed in a totally dark room with the light on about 3 and it works perfectly for me. I personally really don't like using book lights.

 You have to copy the link in order to see the picture I think Thank you in advance

It's a bit hard to tell from that pic, but I think yours looks pretty good. Nothing too distracting to my eyes. The light at the bottom not being uniform is normal, due to the LEDs, so don't worry about that. The main thing really is how does it look to your eyes? Are you comfortable reading on it? I wouldn't let anything said on here, or any of the pics concern you if you're happy with yours and enjoy reading on it.
