If I pick up a book and do the same thing there is zero amount of distracting glare. The whole page just gets a bit lighter. This is because the paper is more diffuse surface and has has less specular reflection. ...

I don't have that kind of trouble with my eReaders (or maybe I'm just not as discerning). It might be an issue with the light layer. The only eReader I have that is front-lit is my Nook Simple Touch with Glowlight, and it's too murky to comfortably read without turning on the front light. (Actually, even with the light on, it's not comfortable on my eyes after about a half an hour.) I don't know where you live, but if you're in the United States, you can pick up an older, non-front-lit eReader for about $20 and test to see if the light layer is the issue.
