No real e-book readers have a back light. Backlight cuases eyestrain, so instead they use e-ink. This makes them much, much easier to read on a bright sunny day though. If you need a light at night, you can use a clip on light.
The Kindle 1 has an SD slot, but the Kindle 2 does not. You don't really need it as it holds 1500 books and archives ALL your Amazon books for you for re-download as needed.
Newer books you'll have to get from Amazon. You can get older books from any site that offers e-books without DRM (though some may need converted first). For public domain books I recommend Project Gutenberg or Manybooks.net. I think they're both formatting better than Google books.

You need this light to use the Kindle for reading in the dark, it doesn't have backlight:

It doesn't have SD card, but 2GB internal memory. And you just need to get the books directly from Amazon.
Does it have a backlight?
The Kindle does not have backlight for easy reading with your eyes. Read here and you'll know:
