I did not noticed the gloss until you mentioned it.
It's probably to protect the e-ink from the touch screen.
Anyway it's not a problem at all, I have used it in direct sunlight,
dark place like my bedroom, office etc
But if you have never experienced electronic ink, you shold go check it
for real.
It's weird the first time, it look like a picture of an lcd screen but
at an extreme resolution.
It's good for reading the electronic newspapers, direct download to the
e-book and Voila!

Hmm... I think I truly must see it first, because reviews are saying
it has semi-glossy display, which is an absolute no for an ebook
reader.
But yes, Realsoft should export the manual to PDF.
