I watched one video where I saw something but I assumed it was shadows from something above and not color blobs. I hope at least! The other video I saw I thought it looked pretty good really. I saw the blue screens too, but I'm thinking there must be a reason for it showing up that way. I really don't think they will be blue like that in person, that would be crazy.
I scan the net pretty much daily for new reviews and videos as I'd really like to get a better look at it, but I may just have to see it in person to really know. I did find one review here:
http://tech.fortune.cnn.com/2013/09/...rwhite-review/
that states
"the Kindle team took this year's upgrade seriously. According to Limp, they experimented with up to 25 different ways to illuminate text." and
"and a new built-in light Amazon says should eliminate any sort of lighting issues some readers had last year."
Not that it means anything really. It's a little hard for me not to be skeptical after last years experience, but one can still hope.
