I agree, non-lit is less tiring for the eye, especially in the dark. But with a non-lit screen in the dark you will need a lamp, while the Palm TX, you can read in the garden at night, or under the blankets in bed, because the screen is backlit. At night I choose black for background color and grey for the font. It makes the light very soft and it is really a pleasant reading experience. I also like to change the background color to 'match' it with the feel of the novel - some novels you like to read on a green background, others maybe in soft blue or gray. To me, color adds a lot to the feeling that I'm reading for pleasure. Reading in black-and-white is more like being at work. I would not recommend other PDA's for reading, not even another Palm, only the TX. I tried several, but the screens are too small, and not enough resolution for pleasant reading.
