My understanding is that all e-ink screens have plastic top layer. All except the Que have a glass substrate.

The nook e-ink screen has plastic on top and does not have touch capabilities. The LCD screen on the bottom of the nook does have glare but it's also back lit.

I've never touched and iRex product, so I'm not sure. I believe they use Wacom technology.
