I upgraded my ipad 3 to ios 7 and now I'm used to reading with white text on dark background using really thin font. Going back to eink is kind of ugh. Sure I can make the font real thin on the pw2, too, but then it's too faint to read because of poor contrast.
I hear you. I had to bold the text for all my eInk books, and that was a PITA. Now with the Nexus 7.2 and iPad Mini Retina I no longer have to modify the eBooks to make the fonts easier to read. That is good because modifying an Amazon eBook means you lose some of the features, so now I get all the features and no eyestrain!
