"My conclusion is that the new Nook is definitely improved but still not as good as the new Kindle. The text is not washed out to me as somebody commented from other photos. It's pretty similar to the Kindle. However, I think the Kindle does a better job at minimizing ghosting, and you can set refresh to every page (the Nook does not have any optional settings)."

My evaluation of the new Kindle vs Nook is that the kindle is plagued with severe ghosting 3-4 pages after a screen refresh. In stark contrast to the Kindle, the Nook had no ghosting no matter how many pages I flipped, all without any visible screen refreshes. Quite a disappointing performance for the Kindle after all the promotional hoopla about the new improved Kindle screen technology.
