I'm also waiting for a device with a Mirasol screen. According to the rumors the first should be out before the end of the year.
The reason I don't buy anything which requires a back-light is that even tho most people consider them mobile, I don't. If it cant stay awake - without it's tail connected - as long as I can, I don't consider it a mobile device.
And since I already own a eInk device which works well, I see no need to buy anything with an inferior screen technology to do my reading on.
