I do most of my reading in bed, at night, in the dark.

So to get rid of that, I had to cover the top with a piece of black electrical tape. Once I did that, I went ahead and covered the left side and the bottom as well.

Now that I have done that, it seems easier on the eye to me when I am reading using a book light. During daytime reading also the black tapes don't bother me much.

Having heard all the raving about the Blue here though I am very curious to take a look at it

The only thing is that the blue also (not sure about the red) has that silver on the top. But I have to say I haven't noticed it, but I have a different light and might hold it at a different angle.
