Of course, why should I have to constantly fiddle with brightness & contrast settings to read on an LCD screen comfortably (and, even then, it WON'T be very comfortable, in my experience) for different lighting conditions when I could stick with my trusty eInk reader (which I can read under the same lighting conditions as a paper book) for far less fuss? And, no, I have no real desire to read in completely dark rooms, so that's not a selling point.
