Classifying an iPad as an eReader is a bit misleading IMHO. I would have never made the connection if it wasn't mentioned in the article.

The intensity of light needed on an iPad to read comfortably is much higher then a backlit eInk reader e.g. a Kindle Paperwhite. Personally it doesn't affect me very much on such devices, but it would be interesting to see if there is a noticeable difference.
