I have tried 8-level e-ink displays, and the results have not been satisfactory. Grey dots everywhere (with a scanned pdf). With 16 levels, scanned documents seem to look somewhat better. I haven't exactly done a double-blind study, but anyway that was my one-off experience that led me to order a reader with a better display.
