I'm quite interested to see what owners of the new Kindle Carta screen will think of it. The claim is for "whiter whites and blacker blacks", but don't we already have that on the current Kobo devices? You get a whiter white by switching on the front-light at a low-ish level, and a blacker black by increasing the font-weight. More page turns without ghosting sounds good but it seems the new Aura 6" will have that anyway.
