Bottom line: Everybody's different, and there are plenty of us who don't have a problem reading on an LCD monitor... or on a PDA... or on a smartphone... all day long.

It depends on the device. On the pc I do not like the combination either for reading, though for most of the applications I work daily with I use black background and colored text.
But on 770 it works very nicely due to the finer screen. On the iTouch the primitive book reader (txt, html) can reverse colors only so you get white text on black background and I use that. In general black background is much easier on the eyes and quite nice actually.
