Sounds good that it's better, but to my mind it will have to be a nearly white background for it to be really good.
The reason you don't hear about it in articles is that is the state of the art right now. It's either this or LCD. I'd love to have a nealy white background too, but we're not going to get it with eink in the near future. Maybe some other tech will come along and rescue us from the gray. At least we don't have to pay $400 for the first gen eink.

To further rain on the parade, I think the jury is still out whether the contrast is really better.
