I have to agree with Bezos on this one...

I bought the Nook Color specifically for color reading. Stuff like magazines, non-fiction books, craft books and cook books.

My fiction reading is still done on my Kindle. I am one of the folks who prefer e-ink for long reading and the LCD for short reading. I love both devices. I tried the iPad but found it too bulky and heavy for a color e-reader. The Nook Color won hands down!
