I can't stand the yellowish/greenish gray of an unlit eink screen. I also always read indoors, never out in the sun. So I always have the light on to make the screen off-white (in daylight) or light yellow (in artificial light). For me that's the best advantage of the frontlight - to whiten the screen. An unlit eink screen looks ugly to me, I can't read on it.

My Libra 2 looks very nice, creamish white and very sharp (yes the Voyage was sharper, but not by much). Of course that's with the light on. With the light off all eink screens look dark gray and dirty, even the Voyage, unless you read in sunlight or in very bright artificial light, which I never do (I don't like bright ambient light).
