iBooks is great application and even though I don't see much of the text in one page it doesn't matter since I don't need to see text in advance.
I work as a programmer so I do 8 hours computer work a day. LCD doesn't really hurt my eyes at all but still I would prefer e-ink reader.

I don't think it was the LCD screen. I was reading a paperback (!!) and had to blink a few times while reading (appt is made with optometrist for eye test again).
I prefer LCD, since I love reading on my iPhone, always have back light, I love to read in bed and anywhere so no worries about lights or so, books look more valuable than in black/white. Also when I read nonfiction books, am a photographer, then also prefer photos in colour.
Probably going to save money for the iPad2.
BTW you're right, don't need text in advance, you can only read one sentence at a time ;-)
