I have a GDS-806S (monochrome) and I can see it fine. Wouldn't it be a
problem with that specific unit?

I have a 17" LCD computer monitor that I can see perfectly, a color LCD of
the cell phone, that also can be seen under the current light circumstances.

The LCD contrast is... It does not have an indicator, but I can't generate a
contrast situation in wich I don't see the screen.

Bye!
