After you've used the Era for a bit, would you mind reviewing the screen. I keep hearing that the screen is "dull" or "lacks contrast" from some folks while others say it's got a sharp screen, so I'm curious how it compares to the InkPad 4 screen (which I think is comparable to my Touch HD 3).
Yes, I am curious about this too. I've read a lot about this but I still decided to give it a go. I am relatively tech-savvy, so I am also interested in this screen from that point of view.

I will report it when I compare the screens. Maybe in a new topic and I'll let you know here.

For one, I've seen the firmware on the PW5 and it's kind of blah. The firmware on the Libra 2 is so much better. I like the hardware of the PW5. I just don't like the software.

Also, you'd have the Libra 2 and the Clara BW both on the same ecosystem and you'd not have to struggle with the PW5 to try to manage your eBooks.
