Now that the Nook with GlowLight* has come out, do we know for certain that the writer saw an Amazon product and not the Nook?

I'll be interested to see what Amazon comes up with, if they do make a lighted eink reader. I won't be buying the one put out by B&N. I can do without a company that has to sell their product using lies and false comparisons. (Look at the product page if you don't believe me)
I use the KF at bedtime too but without Screen Dim app I hear him growling at me. I think a Lighted Kindle would be the perfect situation to the contrast issues that some of the newer Kindles have.

I forgot about that toy. My niece had one when she was little. It was just a little creepy.

True. I have a 650 with the lighted cover. VERY nice. Better than the Kindle with lighted cover I also have, I'd have to say. I'll be watching for the glowlight Kindle, and if it isn't like the old Sony 700 as far as thick obstruction of the screen goes, I'll certainly be wanting one.
