Is it a Diesel, Otto, Wankel, Electric, Steam, Nuclear, Muscle powered (hey, there's actually quite a lot of different types of engines!) engine?

But you're right, a lot of people are not interested in how many horse power the car has or (sadly) how much petrol it consumes etc.

But they want "turbo fuel injection"! whatever that is, i don't know. But does my car have it? I want my car to have it!

I have a sudden, distinct feeling we're not talking about iLiad's screen anymore

Ahh, come on. The fact that we're talking in metaphors doesn't necessarily mean that we've left the topic to boldly go where... well, you know...

But you're right. Back to iLiad's screen and its messing up. Talking of which: how do you clean the screen? Dust and dirt and grime provide some level of mess. I use a TFT cleaner, but I'm not entirely convinced of its effectiveness and efficiency...

It's hard plastic and you can clean it with pretty much anything non-abrasive. If it's REALLY dirty I wipe mine with a damp cloth soaked in warm soapy water (not wet, just damp). To remove fingerprints, etc, a "microfibre" cleaning cloth, as sold to clean glasses, camera lenses, etc, works great.

Looks like we have an answer to the "vizplex or not" question. Karel was talking about their screen technology over on the iRex forum, and I thought I'd throw in the question about vizplex, to see if he would give an answer.

He says that since the Book Edition came out in May, both versions of the iLiad are being shipped with vizplex included. He stated again though that it only makes a minor improvement.

Thanks Shaggy,
Although the improvement is only a minor one I was very curious. Now the "mistery" is solved.
