Thats the same for me. The LED light was one of the reasons I chose it over the 505, which most people seem to favour.
I ordered mine a few day ago. Now, I cant help but to feel I might have made the wrong choice, even with all the new features. As I am shipping it all the way to Hong Kong, returns/warranty will be difficult and costly.
Well, maybe its not bad as a first reader. Just hope mine isnt a lemon
