Variation in eInk Screens

rmt · 05-08-2007, 11:44 AM

I bought two readers and just notice the other night that the letters are noticeably darker on one reader than the other. Since poor contrast is my biggest gripe about the reader, I suddenly felt gipped. Has any one else noticed significant differences from one sample of the reader to another?

You can adjust contrast of the Reader's screen.

You can make your letters blacker but that will lead to more ghosting.
