I have a forest and a large garden, why should I be in the dark when the sun is shining outdoors and I can also work there.
I can also use my computer in the house when it is snowing or raining outside.

Not something I'd want to do either but it would save eye strain. The versatile e-reader tablet we thought we were buying is nowhere near ready yet.
Have you already thought that you cannot handle it and are therefore not satisfied with it?
I even use Boox 6 inch devices as glare-free navis in my cars.

As portable easy to use e-readers go Kobo and Kindle have no serious competition yet.
Of course, if you are content with the stupid built-in software and make no major demands.
Even if you want to read two columns in landscape format, the very modest hardware equipment no longer works.
The technology of these devices is 15 years old and I am not willing to pay that much money for such scrap.
