But if it really bothers you, there is a hack to completely disable it.
Since you want to jailbreak anyway in order to get e.g. the font hack, this shouldn't be any sort of additional requirement on the PW.

Unfortunately, that hack doesn't appear to work anymore.
Again, the light is a deal breaker if it can't be turned off. It causes eye strain for me.

Assuming your books are ePubs now, and you get a kindle, you'd still have to convert them via calibre.
You end up having to perform a conversion either way, so it's not really an extra effort for just the Kobo.
If your books are kindle books already, and you are loathe to perform a conversion, then the path of least resistance would be to get a Voyage and read on it. You have a set of wants that cannot be fulfilled 100% by any one ereader, and hence you will have to let go of one or two points.

I already managed this when I had an aura HD. It's a pain and often screws up some of the formatting in books, like bulleted lists or other non standard sections.
