Yes and no I think. When the price was first speculated to be around $150 I thought that sounded crazy, but if it comes in around $100-$110ish (still don't know US pricing) that's not too terribly bad.

The thing is that with them not putting in a light and probably pricing it as high as models that do have a light you have to wonder if it will sell well or if it will cause Sony to decide that they're done with the reader market, like they've done with other things. That would be a shame.


I personally am fine having a reader without a light (don't really use the one on the Aura HD), even if a lot of the market seems to want one, so the T3 is probably close to the perfect device for me, but I'd have to get more familiar with Sony's newer firmware before deciding to buy (I really wish you could tap to turn).
