I so very much want to have one of these, but I'd like to ask those of you who own this cover (KT/lighted) AND who do read at night, while lying down, how much of a bother the light-in-the-eyes issue is.
My wife and I both read in bed, lying on our sides, late at night, and I simply won't put up with having light shining directly into my eyes. This issue alone will prevent me from purchasing the cover, and I've heard enough about it on other forums, Amazon's for instance, to think that it may be a problem.
This is one time, maybe the first time in years, that I have wanted to go into a real bookstore to hold something in my hands FIRST before buying.

Thanks, All - Great forum!
