I am waiting for some high-res pictures + review on this one.
No.. The JetBook color is only 800x600. It uses a color layer on top of the 1600x1200 screen to generate the colors. It uses multiple pixels to do the color. Because of this layer, there is no such think as monochrome mode. You'll never get 1600x1200.

What would have been better (IMHO) is to forgo the color and go with a large screen eink (non-color) reader with 1600x1200 resolution. That would have made it very nice instead of just a curiosity and not all that nice.
