The clerk is SO very wrong. I can demonstrate a reader better then that clerk. Probably sell more too.

I just wired my money for a V3. The latest promotion is $299 for a V3 with Vizplex and $12 for a leather cover. I'll have to just believe that the contrast will be as good as it looks in the pictures people posted.

I have been waiting for a usable Ebook reader for many years. I enjoy reading books from the past more than most books published in this past century. Much of this is available free as ebooks. Also I can find interesting books to read in foreign languages (Spanish, German) much more easily as ebooks than printed books. Having the English version also on the reader will save me a lot of time looking up words and figuring out vague expressions. I have actually been printing out my ebooks and putting them in 3-ring binders up till now, so as not to be tied to the computer.

I will report back any experiences that may be of interest to this group.

Thanks to all for your responses to my qustions.

The contrast will be quite good. The Vizplex screen is quite nice.
