Would be good to have a dark Kindle skin or case, too, because the white case is hard on the eyes.

I enjoyed my Kindle for 15 months before I got an iPad, and I still have it, but you won't catch me in full sun with either.
I agree 100%. Even in non-tropical areas, it's a really bad idea to sit out in full sun.

I live in a subtropical area now and I never sit in full sun. When I do go out in the sun, I wear a large brim hat, sunglasses, sunscreen, etc. I have no desire to have skin cancer or look like a piece of shoe leather by the time I'm 60.
