With regard to the evenness... why do people want or expect an LCD-like representation? I don't understand. It's a front-light after all. I'm amazed that Amazon got it as even as it is, and even while it's not perfect (some shadows and brighter spots along the edges, mostly the bottom), it beats out a clip on light or the Kindle Touch Lighted Cover bij a margin of a few hundred percent, IMHO.
If you've got a huge amount of color blotches and/or sensitive about this, then it can be irritating, and I think a swap or two is warranted. If you expect LCD-light evenness with zero shadows and perfect whiteness, then I think you should just get a Fire or a Nexus 7. IMHO, again.
I just (still) cannot believe there are hundreds and thousands of Kindles out there that are so bad. Maybe people are just expecting too much (maybe because of the perfectly white and even press pictures? Meh. I don't expect anything else than a perfectly white page being photoshopped into such a picture.... it's an advertisment after all.)
