Yes it is LCD.
From the wiki:
LCD display technology has the distinct advantage over E Ink of instant page turns and on a few devices, color. Since the display is instant, interactive touchscreen features such as search with on-screen keyboard, annotations, and highlighting are possible. Often these devices have an instant boot time due to not using Linux as the OS.
I had one and I remember the screen being dark, almost greenish, and the letters not being as dark, as on modern readers. I wouldn't get one, as they are several years old and even if "new" the batteries are still old.
A Kobo Mini is the ideal replacement for the Jetbook with it's 5" screen and 200 pdi resolution.
