I agree. I'm sure that the release of the PW3 at the price point it is at is in response to the Kobo Glo HD.
But I don't think they'd intentionally reduce the contrast to make the Voyage seem like a more premium device. From everything I've read the screen contrast of the Kobo Glo HD is very similar to the Voyage contrast. It doesn't make sense that Amazon would expend the effort to design a new PW3 to compete with the Glo HD and then intentionally make the screen inferior by reducing the contrast.
