Good morning,

i was reading on slashdot.com this am and noticed a post regarding the upcoming DIY kit for the Pixel Qi screen.

Those of you who have followed the “Laptop for Every Child” initiative, may know about the specifics of this screen.

Here is the excerpt from Pixel

“Epaper Screens- with Color And VideoOur first screens are 10″ diagonal screens for netbooks and ebook readers.  These screens rival the best epaper displays on the market today but in addition have video refresh and fully saturated color.  The epaper mode has 3 times the resolution of the fully saturated color mode allowing for a high resolution reading experience without sacrifice to super color fidelity for graphics.  In addition these screens can be used in sunlight.”

You may be asking what this has to do with Call Center Tech. And rightfully so.. but imagine this, sitting on a beach monitoring your call center doesnt work very well in the following schenarios:

a. If the beach has direct sunlight and you are using your trusty Netbook.

b. If your laptop is out of power because your screen brightness had to be turned up to see it clearly in an outdoor setting.

Here is where i see a possible immediate use for these screens.

My Samsung “NC10″ netbook has the right screensize for this DIY kit from Pixel, and would extend my battery life dramatically, and at the same time allow me the flexability of working in low light / bright light settings. Even on the beach..

nuff said.
