Ah, but there is the difference: here you say You have problems with it. Earlier, you said that it hurts "our" eyes. Which implies mine too.
What I'm trying to say: I couldn't care less if you preferred e-ink over LCD (backlit or not). But, saying something a device is not meant for e-reading because it has a LCD screen is not a founded argument. It only means it's not the best device for all people, as some people may get eye troubles.
And I'm 30+, routinely spend more than 10 hours a day in front of a computer (both LCD screen and CRT screen) and have a less than 20/20 vision (don't need glasses, yet, so it's not too bad, yet...)
I must say, I don't like reading from my HTC phone (horrible screen, only installed Mobipocket on it to see how it went
). It's way too bright and glossy (even with a screenprotector in place). But I never have problems reading from my PDA screen (and I use a very small font-size, the smallest available actually!)
