I wouldn't say "no one", because that's exactly what I do. While I have a PRS-300 and Nook STR, 90% of my reading is done on smartphones (previously my iPhone 3GS using Stanza, now my HD7S using Freda). The 3.5" screen of the iPhone was perfectly fine, and the 4.3" screen and higher pixels per inch of the HD7S is even better. I've never had a headache or eye strain from reading on the LCD screens, but I read white-on-black.
