At first it's a bit disappointment (and surprise) to learn that Hanlin is offering the Vizplex version secretly while purging the "old stock". And it's really a strange way to buy the Vizplex version by requesting it explicitly otherwise the buyers would never know of its existence ... It's tricky because if you order it directly via their online ordering form, you'll only get the price quote for the non-Vizplez model "by default".
It seems that the main improvement of the vizplex version is simply faster refresh rate and page-turning speed, and not resolution-wise or function-wise (both versions are 4-level grayscale). But still I can't help but wondering what else the USD20 price difference would justify here ... I suppose Vizplex matters more to models that support screen input like V9. Correct me if i am wrong here.

Actually I am still very happy with my USD329 non-Vizplex V3. I assume it is not Vizplex because that is not mentioned anywhere in the box and i bought it directly online without being aware of the two offers. After using it for a couple of weeks, my V3 quickly becomes one of my most frequently used mobile devices. The most amazing thing is I enjoy reading with it more than paper now! I don't know if it's still my initial excitement or not, but I do find myself reading faster and more concentrate when reading stuff on this screen than staring at piles of shiny A4 printouts, which also adds to my allergy of reading on computer screens.
