that seems to indicate that the frontlight isn't perfect. I wonder if it is a "problem" with all devices or we're getting a "frontlight lottery" game like with some of the Kindles.
I prefer to hear from e-ink oriented sites first - I find PC/tablet focused sites often have little of use to say about e-ink devices, because they're expecting the lighting evenness and speed of high-powered LCD/AMOLED devices.

I love how their video demonstrates the lighting temperature controls... with the device in full sunlight. Doh!

And they claim that the device is poor value because it offers "the same experience" as a Paperwhite. Ooookay then, PCMag.
