I dropped my Kindle 2 several times and I think if it hadn't been in a decent leather cover at the time I'm sure it would have broken.
So when I ordered a Kindle 3 I also factored in the price of a cover - having the integrated light is a bonus and doesn't cost that much more.
In fact the whole package - Kindle 3 and lighted cover is costing less than my Kindle 2 did minus a cover! So actually a lot cheaper.
