Fairly sure it's a fluoro-backlit LCD screen, not LED-backlit. AFAIK, only Apple and Advent are doing LED-backlit screens on their tablets.
Regarding eye strain, having the screen brightness turned down to the lowest setting isn't too bad for some people, but it does vary from person to person. My head starts throbbing after a couple of hours, for instance. And you're losing out on any chance of outside readability as soon as you turn down the brightness.

Yeah, it's yet another niche in the mobile computing market. I always think it's pretty cool than whenever manufacturers start making devices no one's really asking for, they often expose gaps in the market no one realised were there in the first place. Like the original iPad. The tablet for media consumption (and not just for businesses and visual arts) was a really big niche in the market just waiting to be filled.
