Maybe some people forgot the difference between e-ink and LCD in the last few years but a simple "film" won't replace a crappy LCD screen if you read 4+ hours EVERYDAY.
Sorry but i am working 8-10 hours a day in front of an LCD maybe staring inside lets say at least 60% of the time. I also love to read a lot so 4-5 hours at least 3-4 times a week sometimes more on the weekends and on vacations.
I hated PPC's, i hated the old LCD ebook readers. When i see the youtube vid about the iPad i am not able to see a difference between my iPhone and the iPad when it comes to the screen. I hate to read more then an hour on my iPhone (more something i use waiting at the doctor or taking the train).
So maybe it will be a cool solution for hardcore people staring 4-5 hours reading on a LCD, but i doubt so. It will be of course for all the people who read a hour here and there.
I am looking forward to recieve my iPad for couch surfing so i can test my own theory but i am pretty sure after 10 years of continious trying and failing in reading comfortable on LCD's that i am not wrong with this theory
