I've used most of the different eInk panels since the Sony Reader PRS-500. So I do know what a darker panel is like and while the panel on the Libra Colour is readable, it;s not as good as the panel on the Libra 2.

I know if I had a darker panel, I there are times I would have to either turn on the light, up the font size or both with the LC where I don't have to do either with the L2.

Because I've used panels that are darker with less contrast then the Carta 1200, I don't need to see the LC in person to know what it's like reading plain text. The only thing I don't know is if I would see the sparkels on the Kaleido panel with text. If I did, that would be annoying to me.

With the L2, in bed with no lights on, I have the light set to 3. I cannot do that with the LC as I would not be able to read.
