    Has anyone seen both the P1 transflective screen and the NEC Versa Daylite screen in the sun?

    The NEC Daylite I have (old slow P3 with very small screen) I have been using out on my deck in full sunlight (in fact it is unusable indoors, just too dim). I am interested in anyone who has seen both, whether the P1 is close to the NEC in terms of being able to be used in full sunlight. I am not talking about being used just to see a few emails, but able to be used for hours working and not having to squint to try to make out the characters on the screen.

    Trioview from P1 is great indoors with sunlight from window. Trioview outside is no good you can barely see screen. No way can you do work outside with it too much squinting. Never have seen NEC screen so I can't tell you.
