Depends on how you want to look at it, I suppose.

For instance, it works out to a 14-25% increase in percent reflectance (depending on whether you use the 32% or 35% number to figure it).

For someone who sees the present contrast as 'not quite good enough' it might just edge them over the line.

I think that the speed increase and the simplified (hopefully cheaper) manufacturing are the real story here.

In any case, better is better, and since I don't plan on replacing my Reader just because the new gen of e-ink comes out (I think I'll wait two gens ), I'm pleased to see such a rapid improvement, and hope it bodes well for future advances.
