Do you have an iPad -- do you know what you are talking about? I can't stand reading long form on my laptop or any computer monitor. I can read for hours and hours on my iPad with no eyestrain whatsoever. I've finished 11 books so far -- reading with the iBooks app (my favorite), the kindle app and Stanza.

We have all this testimony now -- not theory -- of people quite happily reading away on their iPad.

Do some folks not like it? Yes. Just like SOME folks don't like eInk screens.

So "for you and others like you" -- you need to actually TRY it to know. You do not know based only on your experience reading on a computer monitor.
