Yes, you can angle the reader so that the reflections aren't distracting, and I was able to read without distraction. It is pretty reflective, though.
I think I could put the 600 in the lightwedge cover, but I'm afraid to take it out of the plain cover once I got it in there. I'm afraid that tab will break off if I mess with it too much. It's a tight fit. The page turn buttons look like they would be available under the lightwedge. My lightwedge seemed to actually touch my 505 screen on the right side. I really wondered what would happen if the lightwedge was constantly touching the 600 screen. Would it be constantly checking for input? Would the battery drain quickly?
I need a reading light, too. I often have insomnia and end up reading all night long. My husband has to work, so I need a light that allows him to get his sleep. I gave the Mighty Bright Telescoping LED clip-on light with 3 LEDs another try last night. The actual light on the Mighty Bright looks very much like the light in the new cover with light. It worked pretty well for me when I clipped it on the front of the cover and angled it toward the top of the reader. That allowed me to see the screen without any distracting reflections. It didn't make the reader and cover feel a lot heavier - probably no more than the 505 in the lightwedge cover. Putting it on the front cover seemed to balance the weight with the reader in my other hand - if you can see what I'm trying to say here! All in all, it was probably about what you can expect from the cover with light, but it does give me options of what my actual cover will look like. That Oberon Roof of Heaven in sky blue is calling my name!
Edited to add: I already have an organizer notebook by Oberon. I have the Tree of Life in saddle design. That thing is so beautiful that it makes me want a reader cover despite the corner straps. After all, I think the interior leather of the Oberon covers will be black, so that won't look bad with the red reader. The sky blue will only be on the outside.
