Why would I want a "glow in the dark" screen? I read when it's light. If it's dark, I switch on a light.

As I've said on several occasions, I routinely (at least a couple of times a week) fall asleep reading on my Gen3 and wake up to find it on the floor. I've been doing that for a year now with no damage.

Oh, can you read for a month without having to recharge, by the way?
