It's almost funny just how varied preferences can be, even amongst fairly discrete subgroups. Put a PW2 light layer on the K4B and I'd be pretty happy (though truth be told, I'd still prefer a 4ish" screen with tilting, sliding physical keyboard w/ arrow keys). An NSTGL deal just popped up at $50 (I've spent just under $60 total on my K4B), and if the version of android it had on it 1) wasn't arbitrarily modded/broken by B&N and 2) wasn't crazy obsolete, I'd be all over that. While I'm happy to use touch for menus and other navigation, but I want buttons to turn the page with. I hate page turning on touch screens.
For now, I got a like new Amazon lighted cover for my 4B from Amazon's warehouse deals. Upper left is nice, lower right is comparatively dark. Generally, it's too bright. I noticed they bothered to try and recess the bulb in the lighting arm to reduce shining it on your eyes, but they could have done a lot better there, IMO, I have to hold it at a slightly uncomfortable angle to avoid to issue. Modding this is easier than modding a whole new light, so that's where I'll start.
