Where is the light ????

We have several Sony Reader in the family to use and after my great-reader has given up the ghost, a new acquisition was necessary. Is already are very good Rezensuren about the device, therefore, only a few comments.
It is very good that you can choose among several's shop and is not bound.
Readability in low light conditions at least for me no problem.
Feel, weight and handling very well, leaves response to the / wipe well.

AAAAB !!! I am traveling a lot, both professionally and personally and have the Reader for weight reasons always there.
Ect in lounges, hotel rooms. it often does not provide optimal lighting conditions. Here I would really expect a backlight as a must.
Here denied the SONY.
I have then risen as an accessory external lighting, which is still only a compensation for a failed product property.
Missing backlight means 2 star deduction for me.
Yes, I know, to blame myself, but I would buy the SONY again and some do not need lighting,
nevertheless you need not Steve Jobs to integrate such a feature.
