The refresh was rather slow, it might also explain why I only noticed it after going to the files...

I think it is the protection film on EINK display.Maybe the shower forget to take off it from EINK display.

If you are scared of the scratch you can film on a protector.

and, your problem with that is ..........?

This thread certainly has become a thread of negativity.
We should be rejoicing in the diversity of readers in 2009, not complaining. If this pattern of thought continues we may as well end up with one kindle, one shop, one DRM etc etc

Here's to healthy competition and diversity.

I didn't say I had a problem, just making an observation. And if it's diversity you're looking for, what's wrong with diversity of appearance too?

It's getting boring, actually. Everything must have that "ipod look", otherwise it isn't cool (or something...)

And personally, I never liked white electronic devices. I want them all black, dark blue, dark gray...

looks good - pity about the bottom being so large. The internet browsing on it intrigues me - does anyone know whether this will support java/flash etc?

is it just me or does anyone else think the stylus is a bit big? something that big surely wouldn't fit into the body, you would have to remember to carry it around . . .

...
If the bottom part is large, you have something to hold on to without putting your fingers on the screen. Personally I think it's nicer, and I don't think it looks too large here.

The stylus is much smaller, this is just a normal wacom pen. I guess they removed the stylus for the demonstration (the stylus space was empty when I saw the device), because it generally gets lost very quick...

It is only on the screen when shipped, I believe. It is supposed to be removed once the device is placed into use. It is really a shipping protector. A real quality screen protector cannot be scratched easily.
