FTA: "NVIDIA are saying tablets with regular displays (consuming around 2W) using Tegra 2 will last for around 16 hours of Full HD video with a standard 3-cell battery; Rohan says that, because their display uses just 0.2W in its electrophoretic reflective mode, with that 3-cell battery you’ll potentially see up to 160 hours use"

This calculation is obviously flawed since the screen is not the only source of power drain.
Yes, I made that observation some posts ago. I'm just saying that the chart that shows 160 hours listed on Gizmodo was claimed to have come from Notion Ink.

So Notion Ink's website says one thing, their chart says another.
We just don't know what this unicorn product will really be able to do until it's tested. Inconsistency in claims undermines trust. I will not be surprised at all if their numbers turn out completely different, assuming they actually finish the product.
