I am leaning heavily towards the Nook Simple Touch without the GlowLight. I'm concerned about the reduced contrast, especially when there aren't very many occasions in which I expect to need the GlowLight. Some reviews have said/suggested that the reduced contrast is because of the built in screen protector, and that most eBook reader users will place a screen protector on their eBook reader anyway, making the comparison between a stock NST and NST w/ GlowLight unfair. Do most people use a screen protector on their eBook readers? Do they typically cause a big reduction in the contrast? If I could get a Nook Simple Touch delivered to me in Canada, I'd buy one today- but it's going to be a bit more k0mpl1c4t3d to get it. On the other hand, the fact that I haven't bought a Kobo yet speaks to my dislike of it's form factor.
