OK, not necessarily a show stopper, but...

This is from the site:
Note: this is rechargeable battery which is rated 3.6V with a peak of 4.2V which is higher than non rechargeable 2032. If you use this to operate a light, it might burn the light bulb due to higher voltage!!

I have yet to get a flip cover for my PRS600, so I am suggestions.

Basically I need a flip cover and a light source.
The PRS ACL1 is made to fit the PRS-505 and will not line-up correctly with the PRS-600. It also covers the touch screen, which might be a problem. The PRS ACL6 is good enough in a dark room, but doesn't quite do enough for me in a poorly lit reading area. The Mighty Brights referred to in this thread are very bright and probably the best option although they do add some bulk.

Don't know where you are located in Canada but if you are interested I have the black flip cover and light for the PRS600 (ACL6) sitting around gathering dust. I traded it in for the more luxurious m-edge one in December. PM me if you are interested.

Hey. I've the Belkin Clip-On reading light from Amazon USA ($25). http://www.gadgetreview.com/2010/05/...ing-light.html
It has 3 Leds which spread out the light equally. It is using 3 AAA batteries and is very light (except for the batteries). I am happy with it.
