Then the eInk prices plummeted. For sure, I thought I'd have bought one already. But I never have because I STILL read just fine on my (now larger) iPhone, iPad and Kindle Fire tablets.

I have multiple eINK devices but no "lighted" eink devices or whatever they're called. One reason is that I'm always close to a light source and if it's dark or whatever I get my lcd tablet to read just fine. I've read that non lighted ereaders have crisper screens/darker font so getting a lighted screen just doesn't make sense. Plus they are some threads where people get obsessed over dots/points of light on screen or if the light is even so that's just something I just don't need to deal with right now. Maybe when eink devices come out with colored fonts I'll get a lighted eink reader but for now I'll stick with my kindle basic, kindle keyboard, sony prs t-1, kindle fire 7 tablets (2), Ipad, iphone, 2 laptops, 2 generic non contract phones, etc. That doesn't mean I wasn't tempted during black friday to get a kindle paperwhite but I've got bills to pay you know?
