Maximus, I would agree. I find auto-brightness very annoying and disruptive. To me, a perfect application to do something manually.

Harry, like I said, I haven't researched the science. I'm going by my own experience. I am very aware and sensitive to light. Big difference to me reading on a tablet VS eInk with a light over my shoulder. I feel it in my eyes and my head over time. Maybe it's just me, but I don't agree based on my experiences.
