I have sony lighted cover, which is better than front light because it also lights up my footpath which front light can not do. And the traditional light is so much better, just any thinkpad users, which do they prefer, thinklight or backlight?

I find the size of the 350 to be too small. I have a 650 and yes, the aluminum body is nice, but it also adds to the weight. I have a Kobo Aura H2O and I rather like the 6.8" screen. As for the lighted cover, I much prefer the front light. It's a lot more even and I can adjust the level of the light other than low or high. One thing I rather like that PRS+ cannot do is hyphenation. I prefer hyphens to gaps. Also, I like the Carta screen as it does give better contrast than Pearl. And the resolution makes the text sharper and clearer.

Also, sony PRS-350 has metal body and FIVE physical buttons, which I can map with PRS+, giving me 10 shortcuts/functions. The new readers are horrible with their button less designs.

That can make it easier to jump to some place instead of multiple taps.

Anyways, I really want to improve PRS+, which language is it coded in? There are many bugs, although there are workarounds, but I want to remove them.
