I'm currently reading with my 2011 basic Kindle again without touchscreen or lighting, as those uneven lighted screens make me furious while reading :/

I think it is defenitely the case that the other models were much less noticeable.
The lights going up and down, you can go through the gradient gradually as you go down the screen.
Once I saw it on the side-to-side gradient on every line, I could not un-see it, and it started getting really distracting.
I really want the 7" screen, but If the replacement doesn't have a really good light guide, i may just have to return it, and wait and hope they do a 7: paper white next year.
