I think that is likely correct as LCD displays can display black and white (and greyscale) better than E Ink (and do color too

).
So an E Ink display device user is pretty much stuck with non-color illustrated novels whether they like it or not. Or put up reading the likes of Isaacson's recent "Leonardo da Vinci" and enjoying (sic

) the discussion about the Mona Lisa's details (for example) in not very well rendered greyscale.
{Why better than E Ink for black and white? One reason is LCD has orders of magnitude better contrast than E Ink (and AMOLED even more again - AMOLED contrast is effectively infinite).}.
