I find reading on the Color Nook fine too and it doesn't strain my eyes.
Other than in bright sunlight, I tend to like it with the backlight pretty low.

My nook is rooted and I use the adjbrightness app to allow lower backlight levels than the darkest stock setting.
In a dark room I actually use it somewhere between 7 and 10 and find that quite comfortable and not straining on my eyes whereas I might get annoyed even using the lowest stock setting.
