Kosmicki,

I echo your sentiments.

Let's hope that the production units get into the reviewers' hands any day now and we get more input on this one.

One thing that I don't fully understand re e-ink screens is whether or not it is possible to have some form of contrast control feature similar to lcd screens where you can adjust the contrast on a sliding scale (eg 0 to 100). I'm guessing you can't.....
