Hmm it's not as good as the old basic, true, but it's not terrible either, IMHO. I would really like to see what the Helvetica font looks like. Is the text/contrast on the new basic similar to that of Paperwhite (with the light off)? There are some shops here selling Paperwhite, I might go and take a look, if it has mostly the same fonts/darkness/contrast.
I don't need the frontlight and so can't really justify buying Paperwhite or Voyage, which are more expensive, if their text is no better. But I am interested in the newer software. Doing anything on the old basic besides page-turning is a pain, although I love the wonderful screen.
