Hi Deb, the Kindle is every bit as good as you want it to be, EXCEPT you still need to turn on a light to read int he dark. It is not back lit, which may be a drag, but is also part of its charm: Staring at Kindle’s screen doesn’t burn yr eyeballs any more than staring at a paper page.

So trust me, you want both a Kindle AND an iPhone. (Hey, it’s a wish list, right?) Download the kindle app for the iPhone & presto, now you can read in the dark or on the subway or stuck on line somewhere. It will stay synced to your kindle, too. Good luck.
