If these show up in Best Buy before the 30 days I may just buy one and see if it is better. If not, may just return it and stick with the basic Kindle.
I would call them back and talk to someone else. Anytime you get a rept who isn't listening to you. "Oh there's the doorbell! I will call back later."

This time when you call. Make sure they understand the contrast on your PW2 isn't good. Tell them it's a step down from Pearl. Compare the screen to another Pearl reader.

What I would have said. Say So you are saying the screen on the new Paperwhite is worse than my little Kindle Basic here which contrasts surpasses it. So what you claim on your Kindle Page that contrast has improved is a lie? Yes I know how to trip them up.

I would call again. Make sure on the feedback survey in your email you tell Amazon everything they said and rate them badly. It will then give you another chance to try again. Amazon wants you happy. So don't give up. I've gotten Repts who tell me a bunch of B.S. Remember if they aren't listening say there's the door or this late say Something is burning I got to go!

Whiter Screen, Darker Text

IMPROVED—Enjoy even better contrast on the latest Kindle Paperwhite. Whites are whiter and blacks are blacker, creating sharp, clear text. The high-resolution display allows for elegant typeface options including Baskerville and Palatino, and all fonts on Kindle Paperwhite have been hand-tuned at the pixel level for maximum readability and comfort.
