Title: Transreflective Displays
Post by: Mjolinor on June 03, 2006, 06:06:01 pm

Anyone got any links or reading about what laptops are available with transreflective displays. I am sick of hiding behind things and squinting in order to read my laptop outside.

I just spent a month in Indonesia installing wifi gear outside and configuring it was a nightmare with the sun.

As far as I can find there is only the OQO and at 5 inches it's a tad smaller than I need. I would ideally like 10 inch or so.

Talking about transflective displays. I'm very happy with the display on my akita, but I'm surprised its not transflective already. At full brightness, I can read it in daylight, but if its transflective, I can then turn the brightness to "0" and be able to read in daylight and have long batt life.

Maybe Tokyo folks spend most of their time indoors?  

ok ok, I mostly do as welll ...
