From what I've been reading, it seems that standard Pixel Qi has a more conventional RGB subpixel array based on square(ish) pixels. This allows it to take advantage of subpixel rendering to boost text resolution. In black and white mode, they boast a threefold horizontal resolution increase, which meshes with a standard horizontal RGB array.
The effective monochrome resolution of Pixel Qi in its current state is 3072x600.
The effective monochrome resolution of the OLPC XO series is 1200x900.
The effective RGB resolution of Pixel Qi (full transmissive) is 1024x600.
The effective RGB resolution of OLPC XO series is estimated at 984×738. (
