Color saturation

Hi Andy,
I think your photo is not color-balanced. I tried to improve the screenshot using the most black (the border) and the most white (the background of speech bubbles).
Can you please tell me if the results is more near to what you real see?

Thank you

Based on this test I might re-subscribe to my favourite childhood comic, digitally of course. Finally, eink comics are here!

Yes the colours are muted compared with on an LCD (although the jetBook is a bit more saturated in real life than it looks in the photo) but I think it's good enough.

The page is taken from prog 1766 of 2000AD, a long standing British SF comic available from all good newsagents or at 2000adonline.com

PS Taken in sunlight especially for Ken Maltby
