My replacement came in today, and the screen is evenly colored, no pink or green. Yay.
Alas, it is evenly YELOW - when I hold it next to the first PW2 I received and the old PW1, it is exteremly apparent. This impacts the contrast.

There are also dust particles aplenty beneath the screen, it remains to be seen if they bother me when reading. They are either bright or black dots that are always there, and I wiped the screen well, before you ask. This screen looks like a starry sky at night. The is even a whole galaxy above the lower bezel!

I'll put it through its paces and do some serious reading tomorrow.

Left to right: new PW2, original PW2, PW1

Galaxy is in the second stage light from the right.
