>TFT displays are really good in the sunshine, but eInk is still a bit better, only beaten by paper for real world contrast.

You obviously have not done what you are suggesting. Paper is low contrast too, on the level of e-ink.

>Has it been a long time since you've used eInk? Maybe they were worse in the past?

No to both questions. E-ink inherently is low contrast and there is no way to enhance it in this technology: both black and white are done with a pigment, same as print, which caps at ~30:1.
