No on the LCD screens. Backlighting = bad for reading. It is bad for the eyes and is really uncomfortable over long extended reading sessions. The reason ebooks exist is because they are trying to emulate paper books. Please, tell me the last time you possessed a paper book with backlighting. Now, bendable e-ink "pages" could be cool. You could hold one "page" while you continue to read on a 2nd "page" so you could refer back to the first. This would work well for textbooks where you'd like to keep an equation or diagram visible while you continue reading. Ok, you’ve probably heard this before but let me reiterate.
