I'd also have preferred if the reader powered the light, as it does on the Kindle, but not a big issue.
Yeah, the covers for the T1 are a pretty big step back from the previous models. My 650 looks and feels like a book in the cover (only metal and circuits instead of paper).

The T1 feels like a device being shoved into something quite unlike a book cover. Hopefully the Gecko cover fares better.
