The Simple Touch is a nice reader but I have to say that I'll never buy an ereader without a lit screen again. It makes a huge difference.

Still, they're so cheap! And they're touch screens which is another huge deal for me.

There is an on/off button in the top middle of the back of the STR so you'll want to clip the light slightly to the right or left.

I just got my Glowlight so I don't know how fragile the screens are.

Stupidly fragile. I put it the bed beside me last night. it went lower than the metal clasp on the B&N Nook folio cover.. the clasps slipped down the covers and hit the screen, added a scar to the screen creating a hotspot... all from a simple 2" slide down some bedding covers onto the screen.
