Note that it doesn't say 'no power' like a resistive screen.

zForceTM uses a small frame around the display with LEDs and photoreceptors on the opposites sides hidden behind a infrared-transparent bezel.

Ah, so there's the power drain. And that means it must have these infra-red LEDs lit any time the screen is active, which will definitely use power. Alternatively, it could shut them off, but, if so, then what triggers them to come on again? Do you have to push a fixed button?
I can't wait to see real-world battery life on these things.
