My bet is that it has a PixelQi screen- eink mode that does everything the Kindle does, but better, and then a normal mode for web browsing, email, media content, and applications.
- jonknee 17y agoThat'd be slick, the screen was the best thing about the XO. I gather that the tech has been further improved--the XO in color mode isn't so good (but killer in eBook mode).
- Herring 17y agoNope, it's normal screens. http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/12/28/apple_orders_10_inch_tablet_displays_and_robust_glass_panels.html http://www.appleinsider.com/articles/09/12/28/apple_orders_1...
- colinplamondon 17y agoMissed that- damn. So much for futuristic magic screens being coupled with a futuristic magic device.
- mbreese 17y agoLet's be honest... no one really knows. The Taiwan papers aren't known for their accuracy when it comes to parts orders for Apple. Also, who's not to say that Pixel Qi is licensing their IP to Foxconn for the actual glass production?
- wooster 17y agoYeah, Pixel Qi is fabless, so any production is done by someone else.
