Hi,

my first post...
I own: Sony PRS 505, iRex iLiad, BeBook and since yesterday iRex Reader 1000S. I'm happy to post comparisons, .... later on.
But right now, I've got an odd problem with the 1000S.
There's a permanent vertical line on the right side of the screen, about 3mm from the border.
Usually (mainly having white background) it's black. With dark background, it's white. This happens with every data format I've tried.
is this a "polarisation" defect or something like that?
Anyone seen this before? I've attached a (bad = iPhone camera) picture.
Except of this: Brillant unit, same as the iLiad before...
Thanks a lot in advance.
Manfred
