But the thing is that, as you say, it looks like paper; it does not look like a "traditional" screen. The resolution (166dpi) is roughly the same as a reasonable quality dot-matrix printer. As long as you know that, you'll be happy.

The problem comes when people buy one with the expection that it's going to look the same as output from a 2400dpi phototypesetter.
