if I put my hand over the page and refresh then I can see where my fingers where! the shaded areas have great contrast those areas in direct sun are almost unreadable. Its ony while refreshing.

While sunbathing I had to turn the reader so the screen was in shade every time I went to teh next page. once refreshed teh contrast didnt alter in the sun at all.

You both have a known issue with certain defective e-ink displays. You should have had Sony replace them for free. (your friend too). Yes, it's a known issue so why didn't you test it and get it replaced.
