My Kindle was delivered today! I charged it up and have been playing with it for the past couple of hours. The screen looks very nice, although I could not test it in direct sunlight as it was drizzling this evening in NYC. Tomorrow is supposed to be sunny tomorrow, so I will check it out then. I'm keeping my fingers crossed!
Although I have never seen a KK, the text on my K2 is very crisp. I wear glasses with a pretty strong prescription, but I was able to read even the smallest text level without difficulty. I notice the the brighter the reading light the more "white" the background appears to look.
The reader came with Version 2.0 software installed. I am resisting the urge to manually update to 2.02. Want to see if it will happen on its own.
I also received my Amazon cover. The hinge system is very cool indeed and overall I like the cover. That being said there may be a Oberon cover in my future! I'm leaning for the Tree of Life in saddle. I will go with the straps rather than the velcro as I really don't want to stick anything to the K2 (well except for a screen protector - which is on order).
In additon to the screen protector I also ordered a Mighty Bright Book light at the time I ordered the K2, but neither has shipped yet. Lastly I order the Kwik Tec Dry Pac yesterday and got a shipping notice today.
Anyway I finally know what you all have been raving about!
