Since Sony proved they couldn't manage that feature successfully, I think I am going to wait and see with what they come up with next.
No eInk device can have a backlit screen, for the simple reason that eInk is opaque. All that can be done is "side lighting", such as the PRS-700 has, and that then inevitably involves light diffusers, which degrade the image quality.
