Clip-on LED booklight
US folks may want to check Target stores for a small LED clip-on "booklight." I picked one up for US$5.99 and it's great. Much less disturbing to my husband while I'm reading than the lamp I'd been using. The clamp just fits on the upper left corner of the iLiad, next to the on/charging LED. The flexible neck allowed me to adjust the light until I got rid of the glare spot. The lamp is self-powered and has no effect on the iLiad's battery life, and I understand lamps like this usually last several months per set of batteries. The lamp was located near the books (oddly enough. )

There are some threads over in the Sony section on booklights with photos.

I'll try to take a picture tonight. Light coverage on the screen is very good. I should note that I seem to need less light to read than most people, but I think this light would provide enough illumination for nearly anyone to read.
