Comparing the two side by side I'd say that the text is equally "black" on the PW1 and PW2, but since the background is definitely lighter on the PW2 I think Amazon are correct in their claims of improved contrast, although the difference is fairly subtle. You don't look at it and think "that's dramatically better". What is extremely obvious having the two side by side is the difference in the colour of the screens - the PW1 is grey; the PW2 is very pale yellow. I really like the screen colour of the PW2 - it's pretty much the same colour as the paper that the typical paperback book is printed on.
