Am i right in assuming the problems with uneven lighting and in the case of kobo , excessive lighting , have disappeared?

If that's the case , i guess Kindle is the best option as it allows webpages and documents emailed to the device itself.
Yes, the problems with the Paperwhite's uneven lighting hsve disappeared.

I would go with the Paperwhite, since I find Amazon customer support better than B&N, and because of the mailing personal docs (which are also saved in the cloud for you) and because there are 2 cool features in Kindle books: popular highlights, which underlines the passages in a book that are most commonly highlighted by Kindle owners, and x-ray, which "x-ray's" many books and gives an index of chaacters and where they appear in a book, with the wikipedia and shelfari descrotions of the characters.

If you borrow books from the library, Overdrive.com has much smoother integration with the Kindle than with the Nook or Kobo.
