With the Internet it's difficult to tell if the complaints about the screen are exaggerated or not. I'm not used to an e-ink screen, but I've seen one and loved that it basically looks like paper. I'm sure I'd like the PRS-700, but for the money I paid I'm not willing to settle for something other than what I ordered.

thanks
Since it's ebay...yeah you're probably right, they won't let you return it if it's opened. Do they have a good rating? You could ask if you could open it and play with it for a little while, and if you still like the device then you won't return it. It's worth a shot at least. They might go for it if it means you won't return it.
