I'm only about six weeks and three novels into using my MSI Wind as a reader, but no complaints so far. It barely even gets warm, much less hot, and as long as I manage the brightness level, I'm not seeing any eyestrain w/ ebooks (comics are another story, but even there we're not talking headache eyestrain, just a kind of tired itchiness). If you have software that lets you set ebook background colors, I've found that black-on-yellow provides clear, sharp text at minimum brightness.
There is some possibility my experience of "no eyestrain" is actually the relief of eyestrain now that I'm not using Opera Mini on a 2" screen a couple hours per day
