WHAT’S NEW: Barnes Noble Inc.‘s black-and-white e-readers will now have a screen that lights up so it can be read in the dark.
THE ISSUES: E-readers with black-and-white screens are easily readable in bright light but don’t come with their own light sources and can’t be read in darkness. The ones with color screens do have their own light sources but are barely legible in sunlight.
ABOUT THE NEW MODEL: “Nook Simple Touch with GlowLight” has an array of light-emitting diodes inside the frame that spreads a glow over the page with the help of an invisible light-guiding layer.
