Picked up my phone and went from dozing to insomnia for the next hour -- until I went back to reading on the Kindle -- ZZZzzzzz. That was using a dim screen and a night theme.

This happens to me frequently...
Your point about eyestrain-and others' simple preference-reminds us that there will always be a market for eInk readers. Hopefully it'll be large enough that there will always be a supplier for that market too. Only time will tell, I guess-or we can all guess but I don't think it'll change what happens, whatever that turns out to be.
