I'm quite sure that pixelqi is the way of the future. I mean, my jetbook does 24 hours on an LCD screen, that's not bad at all! And it's not even pixelqi's screen they use!

With a little fine tweaking, I'm sure battery life could go up to 30 hours on a 5" jetbook, and 20hrs for a 1024x600 pix resolution screen.
That's almost a 2MPix black and white screen (since each pixel can be subdivided in 3 B&W pixels)!
Just FYI, flickering doesn't happen on LCDs with LED backlights and static text. CRTs, Plasmas, DLPs, and LCDs with CCFL backlights will flicker for different reasons.
