E Ink Triton, which was announced in November 2010. So far all the color E Ink devices have used 9.7" screens. Amazon might be first with an upgraded screen, but, assuming it is Triton, at 6" this will likely be 1024 x 768 for text but 512 x 384 for color. Reports on the 9.7" screen have generally been favorable, given its limitations in color range, but the background is brown, rather than grey, and the contrast is presumably lower than greyscale EInk.
