Not exactly a "plasma screen" load on the Reader's battery.
Power sourced from the Reader would be regulated so all you need are 2 LED's, a drop resister to set the ma's and a connector to provide a nice stable light source.

I think a consistant 20 mA draw would be a serious battery drain on something that only draws on page refreshes, but then again it's probably less draw than the music player.

I've been out of town all weekend, so I'll check after work.
