To my eye, the K3 already does have a white background in sunshine. It is only indoors, or in deep shade, that it appears to be a black-on-grey device.
As someone who still reads as many paper books as eBooks, I think the Kindle gets the edge on fonts, due to being able to resize, whereas paper books (except for some really old ones) get the edge for contrast ratio under normal lighting conditions.
Most paper books also get the edge for lack of glare. If improvements are technically feasible, black and white eInk has a way to go until achieving perfection.
