I would absolutely not buy a non front-lit reader.
I bought mine to use the light feature in bed, at night, so I don't disturb my wife but I now use the light a lot more and in more places than I thought (though I have to admit I never used it at the cinema yet, thanks for the idea Harry).
However, when I read in clear daylight or sunlight (admittedly this is a rare thing where I live) or when there is sufficient artificial lighting on I turn the e-reader's light off (I have a Kobo Glo which can have its light turned off) as I don't mind the "normal" e-Ink reading experience.
The front-lit feature for a reader is now just a "normal", expected feature as far as I'm concerned and I think that future readers will have it as standard or else they'll not sell in big numbers.
