I think it depends whether they decide to take the chance of using glass screens - which a number of other manufacturers (eg Hanlin, Astak) have decided not to - or wait for the "next generation" flexible screens. Or perhaps they'll start off by shipping machines with glass screens, and then switch to the much tougher flexible screens when they become available. All the indications are, though, that it's going to be the end of the year before mass production of flexible screens commences and, with it being a completely "new technology", it could slip even further.
I think it's pretty certain that the pilot machines will have to use the glass screen, because the flexible one does not current exist.
