I did see that in the description on the Amazon website, but the problem is that the previous model before the "Update" also said that. But when I got my hands on the previous version and tried to turn on the lighting I could not find any adjustment to do that. When I read a review of the previous version it mentioned that the eReader was so light (at 230 grams for an 8.2 inch) because it did not include a front light panel, so there was no front light in spite of the description.
The "Updated" version weighs exactly the same - 230 grams - and I don't know what "Updated" means. Firmware update? Hardware update? Software update? And so I posted the question thinking that perhaps someone on the forum had one of these newly updated versions and could answer the question based on use, not an Amazon description.
I know that I can order it from Amazon and return it if I cannot use it because of a missing light, but I prefer to not have to be constantly returning things to Amazon. I could also buy it directly from ViWoods and they have a 60 day trial for it, but then I have to trust them to refund me the money in a timely manner if I return it. I did send an email to ViWoods support asking the same question but who knows if I will ever hear back from them.
