Without backlight, the text on an eBookwise is essentially dark blue on dark olive. (I know it's black, but it feels dark blue.) Not the best, and certainly a color combination I'd override on a web page, but I have read with those settings for an hour or so, as an experiment. But minimal backlight certainly makes reading easier. I mostly read lying in bed at night, so I don't deal with odd angles. Or sunlight, since I rarely get out.

Straight lines in color mode are jaggedy, given the swizzling, but in monochrome, black is a straight-line of off-pixels, so
it's the full sharpness. I really hope someone uses the screen in an ebook device this year.
