I've had the PW1 for a few months but wasn't 100% satisfied with it so I thought I'd pick one up from Best Buy. My PW1 has three pinpricks. One at the very top and two at the bottom left corner. They're not bothersome but my eyes do get drawn to them from time to time. And there were a couple bright/dark spots. The PW2 I bought is pretty much perfect. Yes the screen is darker but I find that it's much more pleasant on the eyes when sitting in a dimly lit room. When I go back to read on the PW1 the blueish tint that I never had an issue with before now feels a bit jarring. The one thing that makes the upgrade completely worth it to me though is the refresh rate. My PW1 was very inconsistent in this regard. On many occasions it would refresh every page no matter what setting it was on. Annoyed the crap out of me. So far the PW2 is behaving and there's no hint of ghosting even though the refresh rate is around every 14th page. Every single complaint I had about the PW1 has been addressed. The changes are incremental but for me this is a awesome upgrade.
