Definitely interesting to read all the different views on the announcement. I've been hoping someone would come out with a reader in roughly this size. I loved the screen size of my iLiad, but hated just about everything else about it like speed, no suspend, thickness, battery life etc. Can't wait to see what the actual screen dimensions are and what the contrast looks like.
The earlier comparison picture making this device look like it has worse contrast than the 600 may be primarily due to increased grey levels. The chapter highlight and bottom bar darkness could be due to better grey level depth where it's just using a lighter shade of grey for those elements. Still concerned about loss of overall contrast when compared to 505, but we'll just have to wait and see.
