I really wanted a large format ereader to save me carrying a tonne of books round. Colour was a bonus, as most of those books have some colour pics in them. The Jetbook Color covers what I need - I don't need bright colours, I just want to be able to see them in general.
The screen is greyer than my preferred device, but I have no problem reading it (yet). I was on a train with lowish lighting this evening, and read it for about an hour. No obvious eye strain, or difficulty reading.

Functionality - it doesn't seem great. The freehand notes *should* be available within the week, which covers it for me. For reading it seems to cover what I want.

Why a larger screen - I want lots of text on screen at once, so I can read more, quicker. Any large format ereader would have covered that. The colour is just a big bonus for me.

Wish? That they had used Android, and that I could root it to add my preferred apps
