I think it looks very good without the light on and is improved from the STR in my opinion. The higher resolution screen is the primary reason I upgraded. Ghosting is less than the STR although I still wish they had a refresh every page option. I don't think the refresh is as good as the PW2 but is still very acceptable to most people. The fonts are smoother which is important to me. However they are thinner, and the STR without Glowlight definitely has a bolder look. The STR with Glowlight has grayer text and so the difference is not as apparent. Kindle and Sony newer and older models have similar comparisons in this regards, and I know some people prefer the older, bolder look. Hope that helps!
