I remember reading the buzzing sound had something to do with the
processor speed so I tried out LightSpeed but it wasn't stable enough
to use on my TE. When I tried the two E2 units at two different stores
I just figured that the increase in processor speed corrected the
problem.
The only time the buzzing noise is even an issue is usually at night
when I try to read in bed, which is probably not a good idea for me
anyway as I tend to fall asleep when I'm reading a book and get woken
up as it hits the floor. Needless to say I don't read much at night
anyway using my TE.
When the E2 first came out I was watching the newsgroups to see if
anyone mentioned the screen buzz or lack of it, but it was never
mentioned and none of the commercial reviewers mentioned it either.
