Fair analysis there, new, thanks for posting!

I have several of the $69 Kindle official lighted cover and indeed, as I've posted photos too, the LEDs are directed a little differently and are of different brightness - so some variance is there. None are, in my opinion, fully evenly lighting though... a single central light source probably can't be fully even in lighting a 6" screen, it will be brighter in the middle and a little darker on the sides. Such simple "unevenness" does feel more natural to eyes than the "artificial" unevenness in PW2, though.

I agree that PW2 text blackness, or reading in perfectly dark room, isn't on par with the non-touch Kindle with official lighted cover. $69 Kindle with its lighted cover is still the best combo for darkness, in my opinion, although not even that is quite perfect as has been discussed above.
