I've not taken beach vacations in a while :-) and my longest trip is when I visited my mom in Colombia, so the PW is getting some dust.

I think that the main reason is the outstanding contrast on the retina Mini and the less than stellar resolution on the new PW.

Is this happening to someone else that bought the retina Mini and own a eink device?
I don't have a Mini iPad but I have Nexus 7 that has replaced my Kindles. I can't really stand eInk anymore. My Kindles are collecting dust. I use my Kindle Fire for gaming and a back up. I held on to my K4 for outdoor reading but now I've moved I don't feel safe enough to take one outside or even go outside and read. I never really could read long periods of time on my PW1 as it hurt my eyes no problems reading for hours on my Nexus 7.
