I agree. I actually find my Kindle 2 display to be a very nice background for my vision. I remember when in college I really would dread reading some textbooks simply because the paper was too white, shiny and reflective. I found those all to be quite distracting.
So here is another vote for a newer screen which improves resolution, adds something interesting and fun but doesn't forget it's first and foremost an reading device.
Who knows with color EPD panels coming some day "real soon now" it might well already be possible to let users adjust the background color to a degree. I think that might be a nice addition until we get viable color panels.
