From experience, its both size and greyscale that matters. Looking at, for example, some of the NBC Heroes graphic novels (okay, not manga, but close-ish) they look really good on the iLiad, but more than a little poor on the smaller screens. Some of this is the size -- but I suspect that some of this could be sorted by a different panel arrangement. However the greyscale limits seems to be a significant impact. I'm guessing this is the same reason that most of the Kindle newspapers don't include photos.
On the basis of this, I'd seriously hope the display of v2 (if/when it happens) is at least *able* to do 16-greyscales (even if it doesn't do it most of the time).
