Maybe it's something you get used to, but I find it difficult to get it lit enough that the screen isn't too dark as to cause eye strain, but not too bright that it...well...causes eye strain. I realize this is completely subjective, and the units may vary some, but if you read in a room that is very dim to dark, what are you setting the brightness to?

I typically adjust the light level somewhere between 7 and 11 in dimly lit to dark rooms. I do occasionally change the level after reading a while. Perhaps because my eyes are adjusting over time. Not sure. I personally don't like reading in a totally dark room--too much eyestrain. So I use at least some ambient light other than the just the light on the PW2.
