I use it primarily for reading fiction ... although I have used it for content such as CoDe magazine ... but I still don't think color's all that important at this point. At least not for me.

>>>Or it could be that some new versions of the reader or other readers will have the feature. It would make sense from the marketing standpoint. So many PDFs on the web (some technical or non-technical articles) that would be nice to download/send to a Kindle and read off-line.

>Thanks for the link. I did not know you could even convert PDFs to Kindle format. So my answer to Dmitry that Kindles can't read plain PDFs was correct, but there is another way to get there. (Personally I don't know why I would want to, but that's neither here nor there).

On the Kindle DX it is built-in.
