Circle do locate them.

Wow Sparklemotion that is one really defective screen. I can't believe it got passed QC!
With the circles I can see them but they are so faint as to be irrelevant to me.

I get my eyes checked 4 times per year because of the macular degeneration for which there is no cure. Checking that won't cure it. I can also see through the cataract with just an effect of nearsightedness ever so slightly.

However, I can read on the PC monitor, my Kindle screens and other printed material PERFECTLY. I don't need to detect pin holes in my situation.

The fact that I am reading this now without any glasses or surgery and almost every pin hole "fan" probably has eye glass corrected vision may also be a factor here. Maybe the eye glasses exaggerate the pin holes.

As I said earlier, MOST folks have defective vision making PIN holes irrelevant to them. That is the reason I have always received Kindles with perfect screens. I cannot see the defects seen by others.

By the way, there was a video testimonial on the review section of the PW 2013 saying that a 90 year old woman with macular degeneration, who could not read any books for TEN YEARS, was able to now read clearly with the PW 2013. Maybe Amazon is catering to the elderly like me and focusing on giving us good reading experiences and simply forgetting those with eye glass perfected vision who are bothered by pin holes.
