Do someone know the shades of gray of the sony reader? actually I'm using the iliad ones also on the sony.
P.S.
V0.4.0 is really buggy so i leave v0.3.1 for normal uses
Thanks for the update, I really have to get some time tomorrow to test out this new build. Just to clarify a few things we talked back and forth about earlier in the month; I loaded up the demos you posted for normal vs. lossless, but didn't notice too much of a difference. Hopefully I'll get a chance to break out the camera and grab you a screen grab to post tomorrow too.

I checked Sony's website and the official word is 4-level grey scale (their words) and that seems to be the consensus with others in the Reader groups when they wax technical; i.e., limitations of eInk and hopes of some type of color eInk in the near future. Have a good day/night!
