Even the old SF paperbacks I have from the 40s & 50s.

I will say I do want white but can see where too white would be a problem reading outdoors as it might reflect too much sunlight. This was why I mentioned a pastel off-white. I should have been more specific in asking about something closer to a paperback and it's cream colored paper.
Well, pastel involves color screen.

Anyway, are you worried about reading it or do you just want it to be white because you want it to be white? Eink screens are extremely clear and easy to read on.
