Not me, for two reasons:
1. I don't want an A4 screen - it would be far too big to easily carry around as I can carry around the Reader. For reading technical books or magazines, it would be great, but not for reading fiction, which is what the Reader's primary market is.
2. A colour screen has inherently only 1/3 the resolution of a black and white screen. I would imagine that the "pixel density" on the Reader's screen probably represents the current limit of the technology, and I wouldn't want a colour screen with 1/3 the resolution of the Reader. Colour is of limited use for fiction reading - most books are very successfully printed in B&W. There are certainly good uses for colour, but a much lower resolution screen would be too high a price to pay for for me personally.
