There are several M-Edge designs. I think it's the Executive model that puts the light inside the jacket. The Go Jackets have a little pouch on the side where you can attach the light but there is no room in the cover itself for the light. The Go Jacket follows the form of my STR almost exactly, with only 5mm (about 1/4 inch) of the cover extending beyond the edge of the book reader.

I apparently got lucky too in that my Go Jacket uses straps on all four corners of the STR rather than a plastic cage. I disliked the plastic attachment in the Lindon Jacket. The corner straps don't cover any control.

The STR uses the same method as the B&N Jackets to press the On/Off switch on the back of the STR. There's a spot on the jacket to press. You have to press pretty hard with either jacket to work the switch and you can't press it with the light pushed all the way in.
