If you want a reflective screen that also has a backlight, you need a transflective device. There are a few PDAs with transflective displays, and there's a fairytale company called Pixel Qi that many people are still hoping will have market presence soon. Other than those possibilities, you need to either choose a reflective screen like E-Ink or the Aluratek Libre's LCD and use a frontlight with it, or you need to get a transmissive screen like an iPad's LCD and keep it shaded when around bright light.

why does the aluratek only have a quoted battery life of 24 hours.

my lcd watch's battray lasts a year...

so where is the power going?

i understand the display is larger but even taking that into account the battery life would be at least a couple of weeks not 24 hours.
