All features of the ca. 1999 Compaq iPAQ 3000 series PDA. It was better than nothing, but it really wasn't good enough. My current PDA has a similar display. I don't use it in sunlight if I can help it. Just not good enough.
That technology has been around the barn and no one bought it as a sunlight readable disply. At best, it's a display that doesn't turn completely useless in the sun.
