I would like to predict other devices, I’m only sure of my devices. I must admit the refresh on my Nook is very bad, it has a more cumbersome and longer flash than new devices. Though, while productivity is no doubt less impacted on new ones, flashing always looks disturbing to me.
I’m unsure what dithering is? Perhaps a video will make things clearer for us? If you skip to 1:31 in this video you will see someone browsing the internet on an a2 enabled Nook Simple Touch:

Is this much different to your Icarus? The Nook’s text seems legible to me, and although it has low FPS, this feels acceptable to me. It does not blur or distort as you see.
The problems of the Nook for me are screen space (6”), the websites often load slowly, and the response time on the Nook is not too fast. This can be seen when he draws at 2:20 in the video. The pixels update at an acceptable FPS, but the response time could be better. I hope the Icarus responds and loads websites faster and expect the stylus n96ml would have a quicker response.

Yes, fair point.

Oh right. I wasn’t sure but I thought it might be possible after I saw an Icarus (which i see now is a different model) being used as monitor in another video.

That’s top of the range, and therefore out of my price range.
