In turn, the reflectiveness of the Surface’s display is much lower than the iPad, resulting in higher contrast of colors and more visible detail"
And now I don't know what to think about the screen resolution. It sounds like resolution isn't the be-all, end-all of tablet displays. Very interesting.

I had cleartype on my PPC back in 2002. It was nice for font rendering for sure, but it still had a crappy resolution for today's standards. It is. Eryainly not important to everybody, but since I am a web designer, it is important to me. Not necessarily for work, but because to me, this is a very important buying decision factor.
