I can't use them for long periods of time. As long as I come and go and not just sit there it's fine. I've found using a laptop with wifi for extended periods the worst experience for me. I get heart palpitations, skin burning, headaches, memory impairment, and insomnia. So it's not really so much about the eyes, although I do get eye strain as well. The reason I'm looking at ereaders and not tablets is because of this hypersensitivity to electronics. The frontlight may not even be an issue in the end, but maybe you can see why someone like me would be interested in having the option to turn it off.
