drewh I wasn't really directing the 'hyper critical' comment particularly at those who have been playing the replacement merry-go-round, it was more in comparison to how much more accepting people have been with the Kobo Glo (admittedly that is far easier to do since the Kobo appears to have less issues with it's lighting), and also as HarryT mentions, the people who turn up the light to full and take photos in a dark room trying to find the faults (if I had a PW where the colours were showing at low light settings in the dark as xtine has just posted, I'd just return it).

Where I differ from HarryT, is that I don't think it's just down to people being particularly colour sensitive and that the same colour hues appear on all units. The photos posted in this very forum prove that isn't the case.

I appreciate that the light at full in the dark scenario only highlights the colour hues and that they are still very apparent on some units under normal reading. The majority of PW's are probably fine and the colour hues aren't really noticeable, but there are some defective units too, noticeable colours, murky screens, duller lights, more shadows from the lights, light bleed, white specks and the variation between them is pretty startling.
