It's true. Officially, iLiad has no generic way of controlling screen refresh as DR1000S does. That means porting every application to iLiad requires adding code to control screen refresh. It's not an easy task.
Fortunately, brilliant people have developed one for iLiad users. Now,it's not a problem to port WebKitGTK and Midori to iLiad. The better thing is, we can port application more than GTK+ based, such as QT, wxWiget, FLTK to iLiad. If people want to port applications other than GTK+ based to DR1000S, he has to add screen control code manually.
