Exactly. I don't see the immediate need for color ebook reader -- when was the last time I read a color book? I see the Kindle and iPad as complements, not competitors, and I don't think straddling the middle will work.

The touchscreen LCD offers a good enough experience with books, specially with ease and speed of zoom (something e-paper is nasty at) and an order of magnitude better experience with web browsing while at a price that's half the iPad. Does it have 3G to go along with the wifi? Does it allow capacity expansion through an SD card?

  Why is the speed of zooming text an issue? How much zooming do you do that you can't wait for half second>

    Any zoom that's interactive. It divides my attention between reading the book and operating it.

I can see color being nice for text books or any book with diagrams. However, not at the expense of the wonderful eye pleasing display that is e-ink. Which, as I stated before, is to my mind, the only reason for purchasing such a device. Otherwise why not just buy a netbook?
