Obviously I don't want/need your typical novels in colour, but for any educational books featuring graphs/charts/etc, colour would be nice but I've been led to believe that regardless of how much colour is used on paper; it will be black and white as an ebook, even with a colour screen ereader.
It's entirely down to the eBook producer. I have created numerous eBooks with colour illustrations (eg, see my illustrated versions of Jane Austen's novels here in the MR eBook library). On a grey-scale device, the illustrations obviously are displayed as shades of grey, but read them on a device that support colour (eg a PC or an iPad) and you see the illustrations in colour.
