I read daily and am accustomed to scrutinizing the display and text and saw no real difference between the IREX, Kindle 2, old Sony 505 and the nook. In fact, the nook, using the Amasis font (nice font!) actually is bolder and creates a sense of greater contrast. Once I gave her both side by side, she decided the nook actually looked better. That is, until I changed to another font on the nook. Equally impressive how much of a diff the font makes.
The case color does seem to really enhance the reading experience. My only niggle so far with the device is that I wish the fonts were just a touch bolder, not much, just a little. Other than that, I'm really enjoying it so far and I feel iRex did a really great job on this device. I'll look forward to dictionary support in hopefully the not to distant future.
