[QUOTE="Kash, post: 1146712, member: 23444"] The comment was pointed at the fact that once you adjust the brightness settings to an appropriate level, then you won't experience the eye strain that you mentioned in your previous post. It's a perfectly valid comment. The Macbook is a horrible e-reader, I would personally never use my Macbook to read books. I use my iPad for reading all the time. I read at least one or two hours every night. I've gone through several books in just the last two weeks. I don't find the iPad to be heavy and the backlight doesn't result in eye strain. I find reading on the iPad to be a far more pleasant experience than a physical book. Another benefit to an iPad is that if I ever come across something while reading that needs to be looked up, I can quickly switch over to Safari and do a Google search, find the answer, and then quickly switch back. I believe everyone else has answered your question regarding Kindle vs. iPad. If she wants a Kindle, then get her a Kindle, it's the only thing she'll be happy with. [/QUOTE]
