Good thread! Unlike many out there on the iPad, this one has divergent points of view and good info--and a real conversation rather than just a series of diatribes or ramblings.
These are oddly opposites-- eink great in daylight but nothing in low light or darkness; LCD/LED great in most conditions, but hard in daylight, well sunshine.
As to the reading experience, I still don't get all the "easy on the eyes" eink accolades, when that darn screen flashes on a page turn! While I'm sure many find eink easier for *them* compared to LCDs, I'll bet that there are even more that would be bothered by it! And most seem to have no probs reading on LCD or LCD/LED backlit/ ISP screens!
I'll also wager that many people's probs with LCD comes from the type of screen they have-- gloss or matte-- and the lighting conditions they're working under--rather than the LCD per se.
