I am not sure, but I think there is a slighlty coloured edge on the letters of the JetBook. This could suggest that in BW mode all subpixels are being used as if the filter wasn't there and in normal viewing you won't notice the edges.
Yep, I think that's exactly what they do, and as you say it can result in a one pixel wide colour fringe on a black to white transition. But given that you can see the colour filters across the whole screen anyway the colour fringing isn't noticeable. It's really quite clever.

Look at it positively - its E-Ink and I'm looking forward to reading comics by (or even in with a waterproof case) the swimming pool.
