Big color screens have big appetites for batteries. And if they are too big they are not very portable. The REB1200, GEB2150 had a color screen and an 8" display. To get a few hours of life out of it you added enough batteries so it weighed in at over 2 lbs. you can still find them on ebay and the folks that have one love them but they are not the solution I am looking for. For me, gray scale is fine for reading books with illustrations even since they are not glossy magazines that I read. I want low price, less than a pound, reasonable size to hold like a book and long battery life. A lighted display is a real plus as well.
