Yikes! To me this sentence: "Bear in mind, though, that e-readers with built-in backlights (technically they’re frontlights, but we’ll use the conventional term since everyone knows what it means) will last much less time between charges if you use the light all the time." explains why I wouldn't put a lot of stock in the review. Sorry, but frontlit e-ink is nowhere near the same as a backlit screen which that sentence would lead you to believe. And IMHO maybe there's a small hit for using the light all the time, but I don't think very many would say that it's much less time between charges.
