And let's not read anything into the fact that neither Kobo or Amazon have seen it necessary to release a non lighted ereader this year. Th cheapest non lighted Kindle is £69 (so with a £10 case that's £79) and I can get a Kobo Touch (their last non lighted ereader) for only £39.99
It does seem that non lighted ereaders are not that cost effective to produce anymore. Only time will tell if the market for them dries up.
The Sony T3 does look a lovely device, I like it in red, but without a integrated light it's no use to me.
