Eh? Anyone else discover new Reader accessory on Sony Style site? [PRS-LIGHT01]

If not, I think it looks hot, if I may say so myself.



...And at second glance, I'm sad that it doesn't use a rechargeable battery (CR-2032 buttons instead). Apparently those are cheap and plentiful online, though I guess it is prudent to see if that is the same in retail stores. If so, here come batteries for the landfill.

All spent batteries should be kept in a glass jar, to gather leaks, until one has the time to bring them to a special recycling facility. Every city that has recycling facilities has a yearly campain, if not permanent, where one can bring toxic products like paint, glues, caustic products, neon bulbs(contain mercury), batteries and any manufactured product deemed dangerous to the environment.

It is requested of all crewperson of spaceship Earth to overstep laziness and lack of patience, and do the eco duty that will preserve the viability given to us.

This is the same light that is being sold for our reader from the wedgelight company......... its the same gooseneck they already have only this one they are charging more for, LOL. Oh and it really doesn't work all that well.

Here is the one we all were waiting for and personally I was disapointed, this is also on the sony accessory sight
http://www.biggerandbrighter.com/boo...P-02-1164.html

And this is the other, cheaper, same light at the same place, they just didn't put it with a picture of the e-reader plus this one comes in colors.

I knew I wasn't going out of mind, thinking that I had heard of a Flex-Neck before. Ironically enough, I thought the picture that Sony put up of the light was just the light, not the light + Reader. I was thinking the thin part to the left could clip on to the side of the Reader and provide illumination that way. Little did I know the thin object on the picture's left side IS the Reader. -_-
