Barry, when you sideload books to a Kindle with Calibre, is the Kindle good about displaying series info? Kobo is great about it. Nook doesn't seem to do it at all.
I don't read a lot of series anyway. Mainly I'm just curious.

I don't care about the comfort light since I'm not convinced it really has anything to do with sleep. I suspect the choice to add them to e-ink readers was a marketing decision, not because they're particularly useful. My Glowlight 3 has one and I did like that I can make a slight adjustment to the light color but that just changed it to about the color of my Kindle.

In a dark room, with the Glowlight 3 glowing orange and the Kobo or Glowlight Plus glowing bluish-white, I do find the orange light more pleasant, regardless of wither the science is true or not. But having said that, it's really only something I notice when comparing the two. None of the light-up e-readers is ever anything I would describe as harsh.
After the holiday spending and an expensive trip I'm taking early next year, I may see if I can snag a cheap Paperwhite, I might grab one. I'm not biased against Kindles. I've just never owned one.
