>The Kindle does not have a backlight, nor does any other e-paper based
>device. They are equally readable in bright sunlight as low light (as much
>as standard paper is), and there is NO light from the screen itself, and no
>battery use when not changing pages (excluding wireless/etc on the Kindle).
>It sounds like you are confusing e-paper devices with something like an LCD
>device, where most of these issues you've raised are relevant.
