I own 2 Kindle 1's and owned a Kindle 2 untill I sent it back.

The K2 screen was a murky greenish hue with faded text. I am not the only one who had such a K2...there are many others with the same complaint.

I have the two K1's side by side with the 505 ( I now have two of these) and the 300, I have the same Philip K. Dick book loaded (from Amazon). The differences are significant. The Sony's have a much "whiter" look to them with far better contrast than the Kindles. They do not look the same...not even close.
You can see from my profile to the left that I currently have a number of eInk devices: comparing the screen of, say, the Kindle and the CyBook Gen3, the screen look absolutely identical. Given the fact that they are the same screen; made in the same factory, on the same production line, this is hardly surprising.

Yes, such things as the individual contrast adjustment and the fonts used by different manufacturers can make a difference, but it does not change the truth of my statement: that all 6" devices use the same eInk screen.
