I too was a SONY user. My GF gifted me a KT a while ago but I never made a switch. I like it, a lot, but I did not care to 'switch ecosystems' and I liked the larger screen of my 950. Then my 950 died as the PW was released. So I ordered one. The screen isn't perfect and the battery-life is depressing, but I still love it.

Which brings me to the point: even if you read during the day, the screen light is great. Actually, that's when the PW really shines (<-- I am sure that pun has NOT been used before... yea... but I just couldn't resist). In the dark, the PW screen shows its limitations. The shadows on the bottom, the pink spots, whatnot. But during the day, in a well-lit room, when you can turn the brightness up, that's when my PW looks so much better than my KT, the PRS350, or even the now-defunct PRS950.

In short, even if you don't read at night, or in the dark, the light has its role.
