iPad vs. Kindle

I am a big Kindle fan. Not so much for iPad. Although I do own an iPad and it is OK for many things. I thought it wasn't that great for reading because the back lit LCD tends to burn my eyes after a while. Although I did run across a free app in the App store that makes reading on the iPad much better. It's called Stanza and works wirelessly with Calibre. There are many more function settings in Stanza that make it so user friendly, like screen brightness by swipping the screen up or down, and many different page back grounds. Actually I learned about it here in the Forum but it was in an answer to another question. I just thought that you iPad fans who love Kindle too might be interested.
