yep, but these are all backlit devices - I hope I am wrong, but I do not think you can read it on an e-reader that is not Kindle.

not only that - a newby may very well discover that there are restrictions after buying a book or an e-reader. The restriction is not really prominent, and the newcomer must somehow infer that "Kindle edition" means you cannot read the book anywhere else but kindle.
The masses of questions on DRM issues on this forum suggests to me that this issue is far from being obvious...
