i can't read pbooks under bright lights or use any kind of lit monitor for reading for more than a little while without getting eyestrain. on a monitor set of default, you can literally watch my eyes turn red and swell - one sales guy at fry's found that fascinating. and the lower the refresh rate, the worse it gets. this makes eink ideal for my eyes.
