That's another reason I loved the Sony x50 line of readers with PRS+ installed. It allowed you to keep the time visible in the very bottom corner. Great when you're killing time reading before an appointment.

Yes, they do need an extra icon. The older devices with a button for the light didn't show the icon when the light wasn't on. I think they haven't caught up to this..
For me the more/less buttons change the light by 10%. But, I agree that is to much. They should be 1%. That way you tap somewhere for the coarse adjustment and use the buttons to fine tune.
I never turn the light off. But, I do adjust it for the ambient level. In bed with the room light off, the level is around 5%. On the train during the day, around 30%. The higher levels are for time with more light. I usually adjust the light by sliding my finger along the left edge when reading and I never turn the light off. |
GeoffR's patch for the Kobo readers includes this, the light adjusts by 1% increments.
