In reply to Pixel Qi Dual-Mode LCD Ships Next Month; $100, 10-Watt HDTV Up Next
I have an OLPC XO-1 and while the viewing angle is poor just due to the way the back of the screen reflects light at too perfect an angle instead of diffusing it, in ambient light it's great, and I'm sure they've improved a lot since the model I have.

The method for generating color images with a diffraction grating and backlight is also brilliant, and while it makes the image look a bit fuzzy, it's not bad at all, especially for a low cost device. Mary-Lou Jepsen is pretty brilliant and hard working from what I've seen in interviews, and I'm sure their product will do what they say.

That said, I'm loving the Sony PRS-505 reader I just got because I was tired of waiting for Pixel Qi to release something, but these screens can surely shake up the fledgling e-paper market.
