I think it's pretty certain that the pilot machines will have to use the glass screen, because the flexible one does not current exist.

Are there others with the tech know-how needed to react to this from HarryT? And what about glass screens? Doing that doesn't sound good.
By the way, spent my first day reading for hours on the small-screen version at the beach last weekend. Loaned to me by a friend. (I am SO desparate for this thing.) Might have been just the sun/sea glare, I suppose, but my eyes were pretty tired after staring at the screen reading a novel all day. Comments?
