Using the NSTWGL in-store, I looked at the display under various conditions by changing its proximity and exposure to the window and overhead light. While I did like the bleaching effect of the internal light on the background of the screen, the text looked more faded than on the original ST, and that I didn't like.

And yes, I did try various internal light settings under varying degrees of external light and shadow.

I'm a fan of the ST's form as long as accessories aren't involved. But the moment one adds a jacket and light, the whole thing becomes too cumbrous. If B&N's jacket solutions were as slim as Sony's, I might have gotten an ST and ignored the NSTWGL completely.
