I thought the pixels were different as well, allowing light both in and out on the transflective display.

If the reflective layer is really the only difference, I wonder how hard it would be to add a layer beneath the N800 LCD.

3M makes reflective films, but probably only sells in quantities of 10,000+ at high prices

Anyone know if it's possible to do something like this? I'm guessing it would be difficult and costly, if it could work at all..
