Of course, you have to imagine it with the proper words displayed on the transparent screen and in the right format, transparency, etc. But that's just an embellishment. I thought it was cool idea and am surprised it didn't make the cut. I'm not complaining. I'm just really surprised.

Well, when I look at it I see a hand holding something imaginary, but it doesn't necessarily suggest reading on a handheld device to me. Also, the contest was to develop something that would render as a graphic, and this is clearly a photo. It's harder to convert a photo into a graphic icon , or to convert it into 1-2 colors, and still have it legible at any size. That's my guess as to why it didn't make the cut.
