Tried it outside. Screen was in direct sunlight, and was brighter than the iPod Touch screen I had to compare it to, or even the Super AMOLED of the Galaxy S, but only a tad more. Glare only got bad where the spot of direct sunlight reflected off the surface - the rest was very bright even under that glare.
It's also decent as a performer if you dump some of the Homescreen Widgets (clock, the INQ ones for FB) that are normally set up. Just use a better browser like Opera Mobile and you're set. The only downer for me is the Kobo app, which tends to freeze. But at least THAT can be fixed.
