I don't mind spending a bit extra for a premium eReader, but I'd be paying the extra money for the build quality and slim design not for any extra power or non-eReading display modes. I most certainly don't want to web-browse or watch videos on it -- I don't even do that on the two octacore color tablets I already have (that's what my desktop & 27" monitor are for).

As I already wrote, it is an eink tablet where it's main purpose is reading. I would not watch videos on it either, but I would consider browsing for some information on it from time to time. Besides that you could install all the reading apps you want for ebooks. You could use different book stores like Kindle, Kobo, etc, without converting your books. You would also have the possibilty to use subscription services like Scribd or read articles in Pocket or any RSS-Feed app. Besides that you could use comic apps like Comic Time Viewer or Comic Trim to read your black and white comics panel by panel. All that is the purpose of an eink tablet and if everything runs smoothly, there is definitely a market for this.
