Title: So disappointed - dark gray screen display
Product review: Finally having ordered a Kindle I am floored at how bad the display contrast is - the 'paper' background of my particular kindle is several shades grayer than in the advertising pictures. What is up with that??? I spent a good hour trying to figure out how to adjust contrast. When I couldn't find it in settings or the manual, I finally googled it and found out there is no contrast adjustment! I couldn't believe it. I am finding it difficult to read the black type on medium gray, and I also find it ugly. Is my particular Kindle display particularly bad, or are they all so gray? Kindle developers, what on earth are you thinking? I am looking for a book-like experience, not a dirty looking, hard to read, ugly so-so gadget. Anyhow, I am thinking of returning this one and buying a later model when and if they fix the contrast/ background. I am so very disappointed.
