If you're going to use a metal safety box, maybe you could give us all your PW cases

Hey, a camera simply does not reflect the real quality of your PW's screen. However, looking at your PW, I feel that mine is slightly better. If it isn't really that annoying, be happy with it. Ordering a replacement would be a big hassle...

P/S: Guys, guys... I love this supportive forum, but sometimes I found my posts left unanswered...

Sometimes it's not annoying, but sometimes it is. So I order a replacement, and it's coming in two days. I hope this one will be better

Try for a third! You know you want to. That is what it took for me. I like it so much better than my PW1. Wish I had thought of a nickname like Blotchula.

I got them all from Best Buy, but I went to 2 different store locations. My 3rd one isn't perfect, but it is good enough (at least no pinholes). Good luck!

yellowish without light
I've got a PW2 and found it very yellowish without light. Not the light is yellow but the background. If I turn the light on the yellowish fade and the light is very white.

I've try to take some pictures side by side with the Kindle 4NT. On the pictures the yellowish is a little bit less than in real. Are there all PW2 this yellowish with light off or is this not normal?
