An interesting comment HarryT. I got my iPad after playing with a Nook for a good amount of time at the local B&N store. I think the eInk technology is fine for a reader but I wanted a bigger screen. I also didn't like the Nook interface. After reading some of the good comments about the iPad I went to the Apple store. I found that the comments about back lighting straining the eyes didn't seem to be an issue, at least for me (and I do have old eyes!). Since getting the iPad I've found that things I didn't expect to like, like the white print on black background, work well for me for reading in bed at night.
But, with the recent price drop I'm beginning to think a backup eInk reader for taking to the gym or laying by the pool might not be a bad investment.
