We're going to need color ebook screens for textbooks, especially science books, but for the most part, enhanced resolution is going to make ebooks far more useful. Apple knew that when they released their early Macs. The Mac Plus, SE, etc. had B&W screens that had much higher resolution than they could have had if they were released with color screens. It was a very wise choice at that time, based on the limits of the technology. LCD screens, back in the 80s, were mostly limited to watches and some small alphanumeric displays.</p> I agree with this.
