My co-worker has an eb1150 and I have the Sony Reader. She loves the Reader, the e-ink and everything. But she won't get a reader because of the light issue. Nothing changes her mind, not even if the Reader was CHEAPER than her eb1150.
She reads at night and doesn't have the lights on because her husband can't sleep with lights on. She doesn't want clip-on lights. She likes the screen to be lit up. Most people I talk to feel the same. She doesn't want to fiddle with add-ons, light battery changes or anything.
She wants to be able to curl up at night, with the bedside lamp turned off and her ebook screen lit up. I think most people know that there "is no backlighting" on e-ink. Frontlighting along the side or whatever is fine. The point is a lit-up screen. She wants it and won't buy something that doesn't have it. I think here are many people that feel the same
