This turned acrimonious fast!

I know Pearl is a type of screen technology (for anyone who thinks I don't know this). I had the Kindle 2 and now I have the Kindle 3. I don't want to go back to an earlier level of screen tech, so, unless someone else is using Pearl screens (and I don't believe they are because it would be a big feature here at Mobileread), Sonys are my only option.

Thanks to those who answered my question (re: the lights). I'm considering buying a 950. Did I read an answer correctly that the K2 M-Edge case will fit Sony 950s? Does that M-Edge shut off automatically after an hour, or is it a separate light that does it?
