There was a photo of the Libra Colour at 100% in bright ambient light. It looked far too dark to me. Yes, I get that photos are not dependable enough for evaluating something like this. But as I also use my b/w Libra almost at 100% in a reasonably bright environment in summer, and the screen certainly looks whiter than on that photo, I'm afraid I wouldn't manage to get the Libra Colour look white enough for my taste in summer. (Winter is another matter, of course, then the frontlight on my ereaders is usually pretty low).

Of course I'm not that interested in color anyway. I just hope Kaleido screens won't replace b/w ereaders altogether (there's no new b/w Libra this year, only the color one).
