Yes, I can read my tablet outside without problems. But not for 5 hours. The battery will drain visibly because I have to turn on my brightness to near max (in comparison, I usually have it turned to minimum).

I personally have more problems with sleeping after reading from my lighted e-ink devices... You cannot tone down the brightness enough while still keeping enough contrast. My tablet, I have a black screen, with light gray lettering and the brightness to a minimum. Which leaves more than enough contrast to read, and emits less light than my e-ink screen does when I want to keep it readable.
