Hey folks. There already is an e paper device on the market with a lit screen. My Motorola F3 Motofone has an e paper display fron E Ink and it is side lit. There is a small slit beheath the screen and a small LED is used to provide minimal illumination. It's not as effective as a backlit LCD but it's still readable.
