Certainly the aspect of colour is appealing and I can see the attraction for anyone who wants an e-reader for comics.

Addendum
Here's another reviewer who didn't like the glare:
It's LCD screen it's going to have some glare, people know this going into it. With any LCD screen product for that matter - phone, laptop, iPad, mp3 and iPods and so forth and so forth.


I have both the eink nook and the nook color, with some adjusting of the brightness and finding a background color that you like, reading on the nook color is actually quite appealing. I'm enjoying much much more than I ever would have anticipated. I orignally bought it to use as an extra gadget to surf the net, read magaiznes and newspaper but reading regular books took me by surprise.

Now don't get me wrong I love my eink nook to death and I find these two compliment each other perfectly. During warmer months I enjoy a glass of beer or wine on my deck with a book, and my eink nook will do that just fine.
Plus they sync up to each other so, if I have to charge one I've the other ready to go.

So they both have their place in my reading world.
