It's not really noticeable with light reading, but I do a fair bit of heavy, technical reading, and I can tell the difference there. I should say that I don't notice much eye strain when reading from CRT and LCD displays for long periods.

Has anyone here noticed anything similar?
Yes, I noticed that too, i guess the slight discomfort i feel when reading on a LCD display prevents me from focusing or paying as much attention as when i use a e-ink. Must be all that light...
