Many thanks to Jorgen who dropped off a link to a rumor that sounds like it might have been started by Amazon’s Kindle designers. The post at PRNews says that reports are starting to filter in about Apple iPad users suffering from insomnia. Apparently the experts believe a backlit screen (like iPad’s much-touted full-color display) could suppress the hormone melatonin in the body, causing people to stay awake when they would otherwise be ready for sleep. Read the full story here.
Interesting to see this rumor appear just as the war between full-color and E Ink displays is heating up, yah?
