[citation][nom]ikefu[/nom]Pure win. No Amazon book monopolization and no retina burning LCD backlight.I have a Nook 1st gen, finally think its time to upgrade.[/citation]
I like Amazon's services better, myself, but I don't believe they have a monopoly. Lots of people use Nooks and whatnot. You've been listening to Apple too much.[citation][nom]tanman6711[/nom]OMG im so happy but what about the REGULAR NOOK SIMPLE TOUCH i have one and now im furious i cant get this now[/citation]You have plenty of options:
1) Get a Lyra Light for your Nook.
2) Get over it. Technology advances all the time.
3) Leave a light on. Go to another room and sit in a chair with a light source nearby if necessary.
4) Sell your old one and buy a new one. See option 2 for further instructions.
