Yes but what about the other characteristics of the screen? On my Sony there is ghosting- not bad, but it's there and it's noticeable. Is it the same on the Vizplex? Better? Worse? Also what color is the vizplex- is it really white like paper or the same grayish white like cardboard?

Personally I could care less about Mobipocket support. Till they make a OSX and a Linux client it's still just one more single platform, proprietary format with little use to anyone who doesn't run Windows XP. And their attitude toward releasing such a cross platform solution seems decidedly hostile. If you've read any of the threads on their support forum of all the requests for OSX support you'll see what I mean. They obviously have a Java client that will run on OSX and Linux- why don't they just release it as such?
