Backlit LCD really affects my eyes after a even a short while reading.


I always carry one of my readers with me. Both are small enough to slip into a purse. But I used to read on my iPhone before I had a reader, and I still use it on the bus sometimes if I really want to finish a chapter that I started on the train but when I'm afraid to take out my reader. It's fine for a short period of time, but I can't imagine reading on a tiny LCD screen all the time.
