Dismissing marketing campaign - Fine. Dismissing experience of actual members of this forum is a different matter. That would be unkind and arrogant. If people complain of eye strain and you don't have it, then you just have to accept that some people are less lucky than you.
eInk bunch is usually very peaceful. LCD camp on the other hand behaves irrationally. Every time eInk fan says: a gadget with LCD screen cannot be considered an ebook reader by me, LCD crowd howls and screams LCD discrimination!
When LCD fan says: eInk doesn't fulfil my needs, eInk camp says: lucky you, we wish we had as good eyes as you do.

So, topics that starts like: iPad! demise of eInk? draw attention of people for whom eInk is the only solution and they say: No way LCD based gadget can be a demise of eInk ebook reader and immediately LCD camp explodes.

See the difference?
