Have any of your had a chance to compare >with other displays outdoors? > the display on my 755CE (black matrix) is defintely easier to read in outdoor light than my 750C was. however, it is still far from "easy" to read outdoors (like a mono passive display is, for instance). with black matrix i can actually get some email done, for instance, in the passenger seat of a sunny car. but it is still very very hard to see sitting outside on a sunny patio. note that the black matrix is about the best you can get for an active color outdoors from any vendor; in this case, however, i think the best still isn't good enough. bottom line: it is an improvement, but not as anywhere as great as i would have liked. --------- Todd Tannenbaum CAE Model Advanced Facility email: tannenba@engr.wisc.edu ph: 608-262-3118
