I bought one and to be honest - absolutely love it.

The backlight works brilliantly and I can now read any time I want with no problems, night reading is just as simple and just as much of a joy.

It also has buttons on either side of the device for flicking between pages and even though the device is touch, I find I am using the buttons more for changing pages as I can just rest my thumb on them when holding the device so changing pages doesn't require any movement at all, just a slight increase in pressure of my thumb.

I liked my Kobo a lot and it got me hooked on eReaders - I LOVE this however.
I'm now going to be selling my Kobo Touch.
To the pitchforks!

But now, seriously, I'd love the glowlight feature in a Kobo. I really don't miss physical buttons (hell, I just use swipes, not even taps, to turn pages).
