In the difference of resolutions, it's rather like old PAL TV. A high res monochrome overlaid with a lower resolution colour image. |
Thank you. Or in other words, the screen is suitable for black text on white-ish background for the black and white mode. So forget white text on black background. I wonder if the FW is smart enough to render black always at 300dpi independent of the color.
