Not necessarily, would just require the "white" pigment of eInk to be an Ivory shade which would give us closer to a "paperback" feel without resorting to a four-color screen and attempting to match an ivory color with a mix of yellow and black pigment.
But I do agree with snipenekkid, the terminology is confusing when the manufacturers and the makers refer to "black and white" while talking about a device that is clearly not black and white, even the good screens like Kindle and Sony PRS-505 are at best "75% gray and 25% gray"
I've gotten used to and grown to love the light-gray of my Kindle screen (or the Sony PRS-505), certainly over the gray of the older Sony PRS-500 and the washed out screen of the Sony PRS-700. But while I don't mind the light-gray, I do wish the "black" was a bit darker (a more "assertive" black) - maybe even something as simple as 80% gray on 20% gray ...
