I would think that tablets might be better for people with migraines and the like because you can change the background colors and text colors. That should help someone find a combination that does not cause the migraines.
I know several people who have had weird computer color configurations for exactly that reason. I know people with dyslexia who have backgrounds and type in unusual colors on their computers because it changes the perception enough that the dyslexia "goes away". I get the idea that some people struggle with eye strain after staring at an LCD for a period of time and they do better with e-ink for that reason. But I would think that the ability to adjust colors and backgrounds would help people with other issues. |

My only concern is being too tied into Amazon as a media source. It's not really been a problem with ebooks for my Kindle PW with Calibre there for removing infections from the ebooks and converting formats. What about other media though? Any issues? |

I think preference for LCD vs e-ink is an individual thing and people should get what works best for their own eyes, works for the conditions they usually read in (indoors? outdoors? bright sunlight?) and/or helps with any other conditions such as migraines, dyslexia etc. I just hope that manufacturers will continue to make e-ink readers for those of us who prefer them.

I have a Nexus 7 too - but haven't used it for months now. Amazon finally added the android "triple tap" feature to enlarge the screen - so I can comfortably use apps. IMHO the HDX screen resolution is far superior to the Nexus. |
