I can also see a little ghosting on occasion (Page Refresh turned on), but that again isn't a real distraction.
Compared to my Kindle Fire, I find the light controls much easier to use, and I really prefer this light to the backlit KF, and prefer either of those hugely over the booklight I was using with my K3. The length of the page is shorter on the PW than on the Fire, but I'm sure I'll adjust to that.
No noticeable blotchiness on mine, other than that briefly attributable to ghosting. It's either not present on mine, or it's something that my eyes are not sensitive to.
It's a PW with Wifi & SO, serial number starts with B024 1501, firmware 5.2.0.
Looking forward to shopping for a case today.

Yeah,
The more I use it , the more pleased I am. Way better than LCD or external lights via cover.
By the way, going to create a thread for Kindle PW covers ....
... if not created yet, so we can exchange opinions as well. I'm looking for one too.
