@ReaderGuy EVERY technology loses contrast when you overlay a transparent touch capacitor over it! It has NOTHING to do with the e-Ink screen, it's all about the overlay. So you're blaming the wrong thing.
I have the original Reader, and have not noticed a loss in contrast. No greeen. If your Kindle 1 is greenish, you have a defective unit. So, again, blaming the technology at large because you have a bad unit isn't justified.
e-Ink is a GREAT technology. The touch overlay is an issue, but e-Ink itself rocks.
