The Fire from Wal Mart for the effective price of a refurb Nook Color is hard to resist.

How does it work as a bedtime reader in a pitch black room in night mode? I remember reading here that the default kindle reader was too bright on its lowest settings and people were using various dimmer apps, which can be hit or miss.

Has the reading app been updated so it's dimmer? If not, is there a reliable dimmer app?

How do ePub readers fare with the dimming? I generally use Cool Reader. I know there are plenty of Montano evangalists in these parts-- and I might consider forking out 8 bucks if it really works perfectly.

Not looking to root. I'm only okay with relying on a dimmer app if it works perfectly.

Any feedback is much appreciated. Seems like a great deal at the price, but this would be its primary use for me, so I don't want to compromise in this area.
