Now with my kindle dx i nearly stopped reading on my iLead. Thats a shame because i like the notetaking features of the iLead. Is the difference between the DX and Ilead e-ink really that big or could my iLead have a faulty screen?
Whats your impression? Do you also notice such a big difference? Is your iLead also more dark grey on grey? Is it cause of the 1st gen e-ink technologie or maybe the age of the device (nearly 4 years old)?

I've got iLiad V2. But as far as I know, the only difference between V1 and V2 has been housing and battery, no difference in display.
I've always considered iLiad one of my benchmark units and still do so. In my opinion, the display quality is extremely close to Sony 505, which always seemed first in class to me.
For a touchscreen device, iLiad is phantastic. But even as a "standard" unit, it's one of the best.
From my personal experience,
I'd clearly say you have a faulty screen.
But others have mentioned, screen "crispness" would be deteriorating over the years. (Not just with iLiad, with any eInk device).
I've got my iLiad for roundabout 2 years now and I can't see any decline.
If I compare iLiad to Kindle, Cybook or any other device, it's more or less identical.
