Amazon, B&N, Stanza and so on. Even if it's not a primary reader (yes, I have a kindle and an iPad, and the kindle is still primary for reading) it's still handy for supplementary reading, or for picking up free deals, like Amazon or B&N sometimes offers.<br /><br />That said, if I didn't have a kindle, the ipad would do pretty well by me, especially combined with everything else it does. For someone who wants to have an e-reader but is not such an enthusiast that they would buy a kindle or nook, the ipad probably is enough to scratch the itch.<br /><br />On a practical level, the ipad rocks out for reading in bed at night without needing to leave the light on. Not important everywhere, but very important in my house!<br /><br />Lastly, the Ipad rules the roost when it comes to children's books. Again, it's a specialized thing, but knowing I have an emergency copy of Curious George on hand when the toddler is getting fussy is a great relief. Big, colorful illustrations go a long way for the kid.<br /><br />All that said, I'm still using the heck out of my kindle, but the iPad is definitely a nice supplement. <br /><br />-Rob D.

I find that the artificial light given off by a computer/kindle/iPhone etc actually gives me a shocking headache, and I have heard from many people who have the same problem.

They are ok if you read a few pages a day, but I read a book in the one sitting (or 2 if a long book) and I find that staring at the screen for a prolonged period isn't good for my eyes.

Anyone else have that problem?
