@janeb: hi. me again. i recommend listening to the 12/24 installment of the podcast 'the kindle chronicles' for a decent discussion of the lighted cover. the non-lighted k3 cover i ordered for the k3 i bought my husband weighs 6 oz. w/o kindle. (just threw it onto the kitchen scale.) amazon reports the shipping weight of the lighted cover as 15 oz, and the shipping weight of the unlighted one as 13.4 oz. (reported weights include packaging.) it looks like the light adds 1.6 oz to the weight. not much at all! seems like the total weight will be about 7.6 oz. i wish i'd ordered the lighted cover for my husband's k3. it seems great not to have to worry about batteries dying in the middle of a paragraph, or corroding when not in use.
