Once you are reading it hardly matters. The color is mostly for when you are not reading, IMO.
And why are we still trying to emulate a "real" printed book with ereaders? I find that I don't like to read a paper book any more - too many limitations (weight, fixed font sizes, no builtin dictionary, ...). Pbook and ebook are two different things. There is still room to improve ereaders (e.g. color in sunlight).
Edit: Just noticed that the Paperwhite will be available in white as well (released june 30th in US)
