I have major issues with the reflection on the Glo HD shiny bezel. If you're reading outdoors in the bright sun, tilting the position just moves the reflection around. In fact when I first got it and was testing it I think I recorded a video, it actually looks like running lights up and down the bezel, and depending on the angle of the sun, those shiny glare spots can be pretty large.

I just don't understand why anyone would put a high gloss reflective piece, no matter how small, on an ereader. Then I remember holding one of the older Nook readers that was entirely high gloss white. If you always read indoors it's not much of an issue and you won't be bothered by it. If you read a lot outdoors in the summer it's a huge issue for me.
