    Color LCDs are generally light emitting, not good in sunlight.

    Stop overgeneralizing for the win.
    Haven't you ever seen a Nintendo Gameboy Advance? Color LCDs come in reflective / transflective designs. Backlight is optional. And way faster than color eInk. I also had an early Windows PocketPC (Compaq iPAQ) based on a transflective color LCD.

    I'd think that HealthBook (and accompanying APIs and frameworks) would come first or at the same time as any health-focused HW from Apple. Not unlike how PassBook has come before any Apple payment system that is rumoured to be in the works.
    What is passbook? I remember hearing something about it two years ago, but I don't remember hearing if it actually does a damn thing yet.
    I can't really conceive of anything that would interest me less. What's next—Apple-brand catheters? Adult diapers? I think this would absolutely destroy Apple's brand appeal—and I speak as an old man who's not in great shape myself.
    I'm young-ish (30) and in great health. Id love it.

    I use it pretty much every day and sometimes a couple times a day that I'd say I average more than once per day in my PassBook usage. I wouldn't want to go away before it is an indepixisble time saver and convenience.

    If their PeePod fits as uncomfortably as their EarPods then no way.
