Pixel Qi and Kindle vs. iPad

First things first...

when people try to compare my Kindle with an iPad, I only have one thing to say... "chalk and cheese, my friend... chalk and cheese". The are two totally different things.

Has everyone heard about Pixel Qi ? I hadn't until yesterday (can't remember where I read about it... check out the attached screenshot... its a new LCD panel for laptops... currently released as a 10.1" for netbooks that allows the backlighting to be turned off for it to become the same as an eInk display, while still being able to display video... OMG. Looks awesome, but still won't make a netbook an effective reading device... ever tried to hold a netbook like a Kindle so that you can read it like a book?! LOL not fun I imagine.
