At night, can you read it using the ambient light (the light from the light bulbs you normally use to illuminate your room)? Or do you need a lamp pointed directly at the device?

It's good. The more light the better for mine, but I've got old eyes. The contrast is probably not quite as distinct as a printed book, but not that far off (depending on the book). I can't read a pbook in dim light either though. I use a chairside or bedside lamp -- good enough. No particular special lighting.
