Hi all,
I'm new here, having just received my Kindle last night (after only a four day wait!!) I was fully prepared to love it, but sadly, that is not the case.
Here is my concern: after only about 20 minutes of reading, my eyes began to hurt...a strained feeling. After an hour and a half I also developed a headache. Is this common in the beginning?
Please tell me this is something that will pass (okay, don't lie, I really do need the truth here.) I've been careful to look away or close my eyes when going to the next page to avoid any issues from the "flash".
I don't get eye strain when reading my computer screen, so this is a surprise to me.
Aside from this issue, I love everything about my Kindle. But I won't be able to keep it if these problems persist.
