Heb,
The *SONY* is exactly ONE MONTH OLD as of tomorrow!!! If that's 'slightly-degraded' then it will be worthless in a year!
IOW, no, the Sony display *WAS* that dull of contrast, *IS* that dull of contrast and probably *WILL BE* that dull of contrast compared to the Cybook. Further, the Sony's text does *not* appear as crisp to my eye.
However, the next generation PRS should - I would presume - have the same visplex display as the Cybook. So that shouldn't matter.
But enough already.
Let me have some time to review it. Also understand that I'm working with a 0.91 version of the application software and I'm still waiting for a few features to be implemented. These will be done over the next few weeks, if I understand correctly. I'll let you know more.
Derek

I agree that the casing on the Cybook looks a bit cheap!
