Off topic: I just got the iPad air. It's nice and light alright. And fast. But I don't think the screen is as good as the iPad 3. There's a bit of ghosting while scrolling, noticeable when using white text on dark background, as I like to do. I guess with the intense pressure to "innovate" while keeping profit up, something's gotta give. The home button doesn't feel as good when I press it. Just a tad stiff and noisy. The edge between where the bevel and the back is a little rough, not smooth. Finally, the cable feels flimsy, like one of those cheapies you get from eBay for $1, and the edges of the USB plug are sharp.
Yeah I'm a tough customer. But I'm paying $500 for this thing, dang it.

It depends really The blue border is suppose to a thin border around the edges not something that bleeds into the entire screen. My first one was great. The blue border was light and only around the edges and bleed into some corners but didn't bother the text. This one doesn't know where to stop and it's neon blue! My replacement will be here today. I am hoping it looks like the first one or better.
My first one had a faulty brightness controller according to Amazon.
