Well if
this report is to be trusted, it seems the “fix” Amazon is going for is to make the screen yellower, basically hiding the defect.
Personally I much prefer the bluer tint, and would be quite upset if Amazon were to roll out a software fix that basically just increases the base warmth level.
Interestingly the replaced device in that story is a Paperwhite. I don’t remember seeing other reports of this yellow band on the Paperwhite, and thought the issue was limited to the Colorsoft. If it really happens on the Paperwhite as well, Amazon has a big problem on their hands indeed.
