Eink technology doesn't
require non-ambient lighting for text to be seen on the screen. Text cannot be seen on LCD without some level of backlighting applied. As to why people tend to blast their eyes with "
everything she's got cap'n" while using an LCD device... I don't know, you'll have to ask them. Mine is barely above 25% in the brightest of settings. It's as low as it goes (with the built-in blue-shade on) in the darkest.
Never knew I wasn't supposed to be able to comfortably read for long periods of time that way. Never listened to my parents when they told me watching TV in the dark was going to ruin my eyes either.
