It doesn't purport to be anything else, and doesn't even have a touchscreen or anything else unnecessary. Colour isn't required at all as it's trying to emulate a paperback.
I'd have both devices, but the Kindle is an electronic book first and foremost. The iPad isn't, it's just another feature and therefore slightly compromised. I'd not put the Kindle away because I had an iPad.

You make good sense. Stop being right all the time *wink*
Not meaning to get off topic but do you get a decent battery life from your Kindle?
