The lighting made it look like there were only buttons on the right at first. And it does look like a sunken screen. I was hoping it would be flush, but wasn't really expecting it.

If it is waterproof and has the amber lighting, I'll probably get it. Those are more important to me than the 32GB storage* and USB-C. Right now I bounce between my Glowlight Plus (waterproof) and my Clara (amber light) and my old ST (I like the buttons and never get to use the 3). It would be nice to combine all that into a single device.

It may have been a bad business decision on B&N's part, but I am glad it is being released after I've finished my Christmas shopping.

*And please sweet baby Jesus, let's hope B&N learned from the original Glowlight and the Glowlight 3 and doesn't pull any shenanigans with the storage. Even if they want to reserve 5-10GB for their own content, fine. But leave the bulk open to the user.
