The price is $129 from Sony.ca which seems reasonable enough. The lighted cover is $49 which seems like highway robbery
The Scottish in me resents having to pay for 2 covers when I only want one and having a basically useless to me cover included which would have no other use.
The light is powered from the reader which is a good thing.
I guess I will wait a month till I can go to a store and see one. Or wait for the usual sales at Christmas.
