I bought a Kobo Mini and was surprised (disappointed) at its poor contrast. It also renders pictures poorly (poor detail). I find it hard to believe that these had the same quality screens as the Kobo Touches (Pearl? Really?) – but looking at the comparison pictures on Google images, I see that those pictured are similar to mine. The Kobo Mini image rendering is worse than on a 2009 Astak EzReader Pro and much poorer than a Sony PRS-350 (or even a PRS-300). Still readable fonts, though – and I like the size – so I'll probably hold on to it. Not absolutely sure yet.
