But I just hate being outdoors very often period. Almost always too hot or too cold. Sunburn easily. Hate getting sweaty. I'm a magnet for biting insects.

I grew up in a rural state, am an Eagle Scout etc. Got my fill of the outdoors growing up and have been a pure city slicker from college on!
It be some crazy Apple fever going around...everyone's boarded up all their Windows.

I try to read in shaded sunlight whenever possible, whether it's on the bus/train, next to a window, under a gazebo on a nearby mountain, wherever. Despite getting bloody muggy/hot here during the summer, I still much prefer natural ambient light.

You'd think all the people reading E-Ink under fluorescent lighting would be complaining of eye strain, and switching to LED-backlit LCDs. I don't find the lighting to be problematic, but I like sunlight as much as I like fresh clean air. At least I can find sunlight in Taipei.

Perhaps, but still a mighty big chunk of the internet missing. Luckily people can use converters and run video files and such, otherwise they'd need to rely on animated GIF porn.
