But ...
nobody on this thread is doing that, JSWolf (I had to look back to be sure). They're discussing the prospect of an updated device that incorporates the features they prized in the EB1150 -- including its backlight. They don't seem to
care whether it has e-ink or not next to the greater consideration of the light. That evaluation is certainly theirs to make for themselves.
Those of us participating who already have e-ink devices aren't really the target demographic for the thread, and I'm not sure we're actually being all that helpful.
Come to think of it, that probably sheds some light on the poll results being weighted more toward considering a light to be vital: most of the folks on this thread are here
because they want a modern device
with a built-in light.
