Very possible (though I've seen no technical articles on screen material/glare in that regard). As I said though, I'm not really interested in the who is/who isn't, who does/who doesn't aspect. I was merely commenting on the technical aspect of the one technical question that was posited by one person. People don't have to be told to turn the intensity down on side-lit eink devices because the lighting technologies are completely different. And because eink side-lighting is incapable of producing the intensities that LCD back-lighting can (sometimes, but not nearly always) need under certain ambient conditions. Different is different.
