I will probably bite the bullet and try a hard reset the next time we get some sun around here (could be weeks! hahaha...). I bought my PRS-600 from New Egg with 1-year replacement protection, so I'm hoping there's no rush to work this out. I really don't find having to shade the screen during page turns in the sun to be terribly inconvenient, so if it turns out that there's no reliable "fix" for this, I won't be too bummed. But if it is a "problem" with the screen, I'm concerned it may indicate a vulnerability for other "fails" down the road. So I'm mildly motivated to address this. I've ordered an EZ Reader Pocket Pro as a "backup" in case I do wind up replacing the Sony. I'll keep y'all apprised of further developments with this.

Peace.
