If the poll is squewed because only folks interested in the topic would come to the thread and vote, then perhaps all polls on this website are squewed for the same reason?
Personally, I think the poll shows that there is a high percentage of people who want a backlight. Even if the numbers were reversed, with those who say it doesn't matter to them being the higher percentage, it is still quite obvious that a large segment of ebook readers want the backlight feature. Now, if the "I require a backlight" number was where the "Its not a dealbreaker" number was, then I would say that those of us who want a backlight might be a minority here. The poll says it all if you ask me. A backlight is requested by a large percentage of e-book readers who have visted this thread. Manufacturers should pay attention to this fact.
