It's correct when watching from a little angle on the right or left. Not so good viewing from above or below and in this case it's better to put a little support under (or use the support provided if you are watching movies)

No heat at all as far as I know (after a few hours reading eBooks). A good surprise for this, especially without fan indeed.

Here a little video. Sorry for the sound (and the global quality of the video), but you've got the idea...

Seems like good performance, even on movies.

Did that stand come with it, or did you get that separately?

no, the stand is included. Nothing fancy here, it's only a plastic foldable stand but it's okay.

Does not appear to be available in the US yet, as when changing the country there is no order button...

Interesting concept, wish it had a Wacom digitizer integrated, but price isn't that bad considering the content.

Where is our A4 color e-reader?......

I was wandering.. what about oled (super oled or whatever) technologies for reading?
Do they put strain on the eyes like LCD or are more akin to e-ink?

OLED stands for Organic Light-Emitting Diode. It is like LCD.

Hum, I am a heavy reader on LCD now, since I have my FamilyPad 2 for maybe 3 months now, and I can't say that it puts a strain on your eyes.
I could even say that I prefer that to my previous e-ink reader (a PocketBook Pro 903) where the contrast was not so great and I had to read with a strong lamp beside me.
Contrast for me is the main element. And besides, I always put the luminosity on quite low. For me, these two elements make reading very comfortable on the LCD screen of my tablet.
