We had a customer who wanted to use a transfexive display. Huge project, some kind of outdoor advertizing in asia. We got prototypes from a major display manufacturer (can't say which but I think there are not so many) and well... it looked like they just took a normal LCD and left out the backlight. Readability and contrast was really bad in any light. A trainee acidentially broke the display but he was lucky: the customer wasn't interested in it anymore after seeing a demo. I don't know what became of the project.
