Just to see how bad the pin hole effect really is, I went here:

http://www.amazon.com/Kindle-Ereader...DateDescending

I only read the 335 ONE STAR reviews of the total of 6,005 reviews. There were some pretty bad stories there but not one mention of a pin hole. Most complainers were sworn off Kindles altogether after their experiences.

Most reported broken screens, no instructions and totally dead units. I only read the first two pages of the 34 total.

Of course that compares to 4,050 FIVE star reviews without any problems.

My other question is how many folks with pin hole problems here see them using GLASSES? The problem may be related to the effects of light on vision through eye glasses. If you take off your glasses, can you still see the pin holes?
