I just had my reader in the sunlight and it starts to fade very quickly. Have a look at the attached photo to see what I mean. Anyway, is there something that can be done about this?
I was just reading a revived-2007 thread about eink fading out in direct sunlight(see link above). Is this still a problem? Seems a K2 still has a similar problem and aren't the screens the same? I thought one of the big selling points for eink is the ability to read in direct sunlight?
