Modern LCD's that are based on LED lights, have even less an issue with radiation.
surprisingly, there hasn't been solid evidence that reading books causes eye problems. evidence points to our eyes (born not perfectly round), but children / teenagers etc have the eye-power/strength to focus and ignore the error... as they age, they lose this eye-power/strength to focus, and get hyperopia/myopia

Myopia, nearsightedness

Hyperopia, farsightedness



anyways, I ordered a jetbook color from jetbookk12.com (cannot find it on the main ectaco site ....

played around with WinCE 6 before, maybe i'll find some way to play with this as well... planning to complement this with my kindle DX G(since that one has free 3G)

btw, this page shows jetbook Color at $379
