The yellowness of the screen is maybe down to preference, but if that was an image of a PW posted in the Kobo forum I'd bet there would be people slating it.

However, apart from some of the H2O's having a slightly strong yellow tinge to them, it is true that the H2O looks to be a winner from Kobo. It's taken the success and quality of the Aura HD to a new level, and aside from those who want to stay with an Amazon backed ereader, or don't want a bigger screen, or want the higher resolution, page turns of the Voyage, right now the H2O is the best ereader there is. It remains to be seen if the Voyage equals it (or betters it), and unfortunately for Josieb1, she's just been very unlucky with her three attempts to buy one.
Thank you for posting that link. I just looked at the picture again and the screens of all three of those readers look wonderful (and practically indistinguishable) to me.
