Headache or eyestrain?

Has anybody found a solution or explination for getting headaches and/or feeling dizzy after using ipad 2 for any length of time? I love the device but fear that I am going to have to sell it since I can't really use it comfortablely. I hate to say this because I love apple products but my wife bought a ASUS tablet and I can use it just fine!??? What the heck? Anybody else go through this?

I have the same problem here. Well i use my ipad often since almost all my books are in it. Its easy access of the books and less weight compared to my bulky books since I left the country for some studies. Im in a review right now and after using my ipad 2 for 2 months everyday almost of reading I develop headaches for a week, mostly at the back of my head and also in my eyes. I just realized it when 1 day I left my Ipad home and I didnt use it for the whole day and the headache is gone. So I concluded that maybe its from the Ipad. Thus antiglare will help me if I put it in my ipad? I have no other source of reading except my ipad since im here abroad. I put the brightness in the very lower level and turned off the auto-brightness. Kindly help me. Thanks.
