If you work on a pc at work or have one at home, then that is no different from reading a tablet. If you can look at, and read off of a pc all day then you can do the same thing with a tablet.
How often are you reading posts on this board and responding to them every day, and then go on to other sites to do it some more.
I can read equally comfortable on any and all technology that will allow me to read my books. I never even thought about the differences because there aren't any at least for me, and I'm not about to let some marketing hype convince me that one is superior to the other. What is truly important to me is being able to adjust the text size.
This is coming from a woman who has worn glasses ever since she was two years old. One who is smart enough to know her limitations like if I can't see in the dark than it doesn't make sense to try to read in the dark with just a little light.
We are not designed to read in the dark so if you choose to do so, then you are simply asking for that eyestrain you keep going on about.
I like light and lots of it. Most of my reading is done indoors so having enough light to read by is crucial. Why do you think einks with light are so popular? The only time I will read outside is if I'm out for a walk and then will sit down at a bench to rest and read. Only then will I bring my T1 with me. The rest of the time I'm reading off of my phone when out and my pc when home.
Read on whatever you like, but for the love of god please stop trying to convince everyone that one is better than the other.
