Actually Sony did produce a front lit reader--the PRS700. I believe it was the very first frontlit ebook reader ever produced.
That being said, I would not recommend it--even if you were able to find a used one. The display wasn't very good and it wasn't very well received. I think that the failure of the 700 is one reason Sony never produced another front lit reader.
