My take on this is that if you used e-ink in the same way then you would also feel the same.
Its not the screen technology but the position, your position and how long you stare at it.
I bet if it were researched the reason most people here get less eyestrain when using a e-ink display is due to shorter stare times(time between looking away fdrom screen even if for a few seconds) better posture, used for a less stressful reason! etc etc
the eye cant be strained by looking at LCD that is a fact! if you stared at a piece of paper it would have the same effect.
what is actually happening is people are using LCD screens completely differently to eink its not the screen its the way its used.
