My Glo HD arrived in the mail today as well. I do not have a two toned screen (yellow on the top/ blue on the bottom). It bugged the hell out of me on the Voyage so I am particularly sensitive to this problem. Granted, not all screens are created equal but mine is very uniform and consistent in the lighting. Slightly more of yellow tone overall then my PW2.
Honestly, I think the screen is really really nice. I originally returned my Voyage but have no desire to return this device. The background is naturally light and creamy, creating great contrast with the text in natural lighting. The text is as sharp as I remember on the voyage but is definitely bolder. The Voyage's e ink seemed buried under a thick pane of glass while this text seems to pop a bit more and sit closer to the surface like my first Kindle Basic ereader.
I am still getting used to the quirks of Kobo software but my initial impressions are very positive. Love the font options. I have tested the full screen option that removes the header and page numbers by editing the config and that works as well. Definitely a good reader at the price it is offered at.
