I don't notice much of a difference, honestly...Then again, the Era B&W was my first e-paper reader. I used to read on my LCD Nokia N900, but then decided to use an e-reader because "my eyes ain't getting any younger." I haven't seen any problems, and I read at a 9 point font. The background may be a little more, um, gray than bright white, but then again, I was reading paperbacks in the 1970s when the paper was pretty much brownish, not white.
Which is to say that pedants may call it "not perfect," but to me it is "good enough"...I didn't buy it for the color, because I don't read comics/graphic novels, I bought it because the cpu had twice as many cores, but more because it had twice the storage...If they were still available, I might have bought the 64GB B&W model, but alas, that was not to be.
