I'm currently reading with my 2011 basic Kindle again without touchscreen or lighting, as those uneven lighted screens make me furious while reading :/
If you are one of the minority whom this annoys, you're probably not going to be happy with any front-lit device, unfortunately. The very nature of a light-guide is that light intensity inevitably falls off with distance from the source.

Most people (including me) don't notice it, but it's always there if you look for it (or, in your case, if you can't help noticing it).
