I strongly advise against enabled and included {front,back,side} lights. It's no fun for the eyes.

I think it's fair to say that your opinion on this matter is not widely shared, Jo. Most people find that the front lighting makes the screen much easier to read.

The 2 GBytes (where you can only use around 1.4 Gbyte) are full in a jiffy. Especially if you're using the RSS News function from Calibre. It really depends on how many ebooks you want to have and how big they are. E.g. ebooks with a lot of picture (screenshots, ...) are much bigger (10 - 20 mbytes).

As I said in my previous post, I have a little over 700 books on my PW and it's less than half full. I'm sure that many people wouldn't find a "limit" of 1000+ books to be any real restriction.
