The Voice or not the voice

New here and trying to get a feel for whether the Vox is for me.
I have been lurking on the Vox forum but still not sure.

Thanks folks.
So here is the quandary. I have a Macbook right now. I can not use it out side in even a bright cloudy day. I think Apple gets great battery life by limiting brightness.
I am wondering if there is a large difference reading on the Vox screen compared to the Macbook screen. Does anyone have input on that?
The obvious solution is to go to a store but that is over an hour away from me (4 hours north of Toronto) and when I was there last I did get my hands on their demo at this little Coles store but they were having trouble with it..... ominous.
I don't want tons of apps, read the web, read a book do some email.
