Well, after some delays I got my hands on mine just before Christmas, having told my father he could have my PW2. And after using it in the afternoon and for a good long read at night, and trying it in the same lighting conditions, same font as my PW2 I just felt the PW2 screen was much better.
The text on the Voyage was, naturally, darker and crisper, but my PW2 has an excellent, soft cream coloured, dead even screen. The Voyage was distinctly blueish and the top was light pink. I could see where, in a sentence, the text went from one background colour to another. There were also two pin holes which didn't bother me much as they weren't in the text area. I just found myself really not wanting to give up my PW2.
The real prob for me was the blueish cast, I definitely prefer reading on a "warmer" screen in a darkened room - which is where I do a lot of my reading. So, back it went. It was a disappointment but I have a very good ereader so I can't complain.
I ordered another PW2 for my father and I have to say that the text seemed less 'milky' than on my PW2. That and the bigger memory made it a good buy.
I may have another 'bite' at the Voyage in a year or so.
