I can absolutely agree with the fact that the screen is unusable outside in daylight (I can just about see it if I shield both sides and the top of the screen with my hand). But there must be a big difference between your screen and mine. It is perfectly comfortably readable every where inside the house. Even if I stand with my back to a sunny window I can still read it fine (though obviously I do have to tilt it to the right angle to remove any reflections). I guess there must be some variability between screens, some are likely to be brighter than others. My screen does get very dirty very quickly, with grease from my fingers. But I find it cleans off very easily with a bit of lens cleaning fluid and a clean cloth. I do wish the screen was a little less glossy, though I do realise that glossy is very "in". Maybe you should talk to Logitech support and see if you have a dud ? -- andynormancx Yes, it will. Yes, all of them. Yes, SoftSqueeze as well. What ?
