I think it is just me but I need very bright light source. When I was reading on my e-ink screen in low light, similar to paper, i get a headache. During one of the trips, I didn't bring my laptop. When I was surfing the web with the nook in the hotel, I found myself drawn to reading the article in the little second screen. It was a very unsatisfying experience.

Since I lost my nook to my daughter, I haven't read on the e-ink since. I work 9 hours in front of the LCD and go home and surf the web on the laptop for another 2-3 hours with no problem.
