The eInk looks fantastic on the Pocket PRO 5 inch device and while the Sony PRS-505 remains the champion in this area, I think many may find the Pocket PRO display to work even better because it doesn’t have the whiter background.
This sounds a little strange to me also. Owning a 505, IMO, the background is more grey then white. I'm not sure how having an even darker background would help with perceived contrast; I wish, IMO, that for normal use, that my 505 (and future EInk devices that I may purchase) had more contrast (and I do not want backlit LCD).

Also, why not conclude that many people may find that the 600 would work even better then the PocketPro (and 505), after all, the 600 is even duller then the PocketPro.
