That said I still don't understand people who want to read in pitch black with Kindle as only light source and expect pleasant experience / no eye strain/fatigue. Expecially on PW1 with its problematic/cloudy/blotchy screen that requires turning up the intensity to be readable.
Interesting, my screen is pretty even on my PW1 but in the dark with the light at max I notice a little splotchiness. The lower I put my light the better. I usually read with my light at 1 or 0. I usually have a lamp on in the room, too, but the lamp doesn't illuminate my screen it's too far away.
