I'd rather pay less for 8tint.

I just want to see 4 tint first before making a decision... However I'm pretty sure with 4 greyscales you can not really make a lot of detailed photo's or the photo's need to be dirthered (same thing as with 8 grayscale).
So far the tablets with 8 greyscale photo's look pretty much like a 256color pictures on a monitor, only now without color...
Yea, I wish I had some good images to show you. Those on the iLiad were the only ones I could find. Generally these device favor text and images get second billing. However, the Sony is the only 6" reader that even goes beyond 4 level. They clearly have the latest and greatest controller. The new 700 may be even better but we haven't seen it yet.
