BTW, I'm thinking that if B&N really wants to pin their next-gen Nook Tablets to outdoor readability, they just need to get somebody to build them panels with strong LED sidelighting and reflective backplanes. If they found somebody willing to do that at a reasonable cost it wouldn't be "revolutionary" but quite welcome.

(My seven year old DELL AXIM does it fine at the 4in VGA size so scaling the tech up to 7in WXGA is hardly impossible.)
