Happened to toy with a Nook STwGL today again at a Best Buy tonight, this one in the latter stages of moribundity. The light was an imperfect horizontal line at the edge of the screen and a blue casualty everywhere else. It was no match even for my PRS-350 in the official lighted case.

I'd been lamenting the fact I bought a ST for my girlfriend before the advent of the glow light. Seeing the STwGL in person again, I was glad about my purchase. The implementation makes the light more of a distraction than a feature.

Very interested in seeing the Paperwhite in person. Dropped hints with my bitter laugh that I wouldn't mind one at Xmas. We'll see how that goes.
