It not having a backlight is much more interesting to me. It would be perfect during my migraine episodes.

The option of a light would be good though. But not as a backlight cause that will kill visibility when the light is off. A subtle frontlight would suffice. Or at least however kindles deal with it.

Those were never great though, i was thinking more like the GBA SP. But either way I don't mind the no light personally
