Yeah, non eink/epaper displays for e-readers are HORRIBLE ideas. The backlights on displays are terrible on your eyes for extended periods of time. I'd agree with this completely. Backlit e-readers are horrible IMO. I have a lighted cover for my Nook on my Amazon wish list for Christmas. I really doubt anyone I know will spend that much money on me though.

New John Grisham book for example: Retail price - $29 Kindle price - $10 It's literally a 3rd of the price. For the price you pay for that book in the store, I can buy three of them. Really all depends on what you're looking to get, though. For me, I prefer paperback books (I'm even picky about that - I want regular paperback when available, not mass market paperback) which nowadays are only a few cents more than the Kindle versions. For the extra few cents, I'd rather have the physical book. Plus, I prefer the feel of holding a regular paperback novel and I like having books on my shelves.
