This is a bad Kindle for several reasons:
1.) The lighting system (the pictures should tell the whole story). It looks worse in person.
2.) The screen has this annoying border where all sorts of dust etc get trapped. Also, it's not "finished" very well, with jagged edges in places.
3.) The screen sucks.
4.) The screen is not even in terms of color temperature, though it's certainly better than the Voyage.
5.) The screen still sucks.

I can't believe Amazon can't figure out a working lighting system for their Kindles. |
Those pictures are absolutely disgraceful! It cost 450 dollars (in Oz!) and they are selling screens that look like THAT... Doesn't the whole 'high cost' thing justify the fact that you would expect the device to have, you know, a normal looking screen?
Thanks for sharing that. Definately not getting an oasis now!
