If mine died tomorrow and crazily wasn't under warranty suddenly, I'd deffinitely get one. That or if I can talk my wife in to inheriting my current one and actually using an ereader (she uses her ipad, and that took about 9 months of pulling teeth to get her to do that. Only willing to because of a large number of free books she can read by swithing to ebooks).
I use a Mighty Flex with AAA batteries, not button, so I can use rechargeable.
That way I am saving a lot.

Having said that, I do own a Nook Simple Touch and I love it. For some things. If they could develop a better SW (infamous collections handlings) I would really ok. I am not so sure that just the addition of a internal lighting system is a fundamental step ahead, I thinks it looks a very small thing.
Unless there is something else (CPU, memory etc.)
I want to wait and see it before giving the last judgement. I only hope it shall be firmware compatible with the actual NST.
