Back to monochrome...
I think that, if the display that was pictured in the photo, was integrated into a "pocketPC" that was only marginally thicker throught the most part, with perhaps a slight bulge at the top/bottom (think thickness = 2 sticks of Wrigelys gum)...
well, that would be a compelling device to me. So think that i wouldn't even know I had it, unless I wanted to use it. I could roll up the screen (roll around the bulge) and slip into a jacket pocket , or leave it flat in my jeans pocket, without worrying about breaking the screen (I broke my V35 screen in December).
I mean - for my Ipaq 1910, I have the new Proporta aluminum case to prevent just that (breaking the screen).
So... for the advantage of having the near-paper-thin device (granted, this means miniaturizing other components), I would even give up color.
In the end - for ME - it's about having my info with me. Color is way better than B&W, but... I also think the biggest advantage of my 1910 over my 3650 (and others) is how small, thin and light it is.
IMHO :-)
