Is This Discoloration on the Kindle Paperwhite’s Screen Normal?
As I mentioned in the Kindle Paperwhite video review the other day, the Paperwhite’s front lighting isn’t perfectly uniform over the entire screen like all the pictures suggest over at Amazon.

Today Amazon started shipping both models of the Kindle Paperwhite, the Wi-Fi version and the 3G/Wi-Fi version.
