The benefits of a good book light are not limited to reading in a pitch black room.
I tried reading in bed with my Kindle + lighted cover, and the glow from the LED light ended up waking my husband, so I no longer bother trying to read in the dark. On the other hand, I find that the lighting in my house isn't strong/bright enough to read at night. A little extra light seems to make the "pages" slightly whiter, thus making the text easier to read.
Likewise, if I've been reading outside in the bright sunlight and then come inside, I will often use the light until my eyes have had a chance to adjust. The angle of the light on the Kindle 3 cover is sometimes problematic; it would be nice to find a solution that will allow me to read is less than ideal lighting situations WITHOUT accidentally blinding the people sitting to my left!
