I do find it curious how they emphasize the lack of 'glass' for the touchscreen (so as to compare it to a tablet or smartphone), without addressing the fragility of the glass-based eInk products, which this appears to be. Unless we can get a clear confirmation they're not using the glass substrate.
If I recall correctly, Sameer said in another thread that they are using a glass substrate screen. The "no glass" thing refers to the lack of a glass touch/light layer on top of the screen (which can cause readability problems).
