The choices they posit, for precisely the same LCD panel are going to change depending on whether it's held in the hand at 20cm or stuck to the dashboard of a car 70cm away. Basically, I don't think this is solvable. It's cute, and within reason (e.g. for an application designed to read prose text on a known set of devices) maybe it's worthwhile. But the problem is just too hard for a general solution.
