there is a huge difference. I can not read the N800 in sunlight but the N810 is readable. It has some fancy name - transflective or something

Can you buy transflective screen protectors? Now that would be a handy addition for my N800. Not that I use it outside much....but...

Seriously, the transflective layer needs to be behind the LCD, not in front.

That is right, the N810 has a transflective LCD screen, while the N800 does not. It does make a HUGE difference, IMHO. You cannot see the N800's screen at all in direct sunlight, and barely if you are just outside. It sucks.

Yes, this is one of the few points in favor of the 810.

If it was only in bright sunlight... Today I took the N800 as navigation device on a hiking trip. It was cloudy all day but nevertheless it was nearly impossible to read the N800 display.
The missing daylight visibility of the display is the only thing with the N800 that really sucks - big time.

N810 transflective screen is one of the less known features of N810 , that makes it a much more better choice then N800 . Sunlight makes most of the tablets unreadable .
this is my first post on a forum and I want to say hello to everybody and thank you for taking the time to answer me. How is the visibility of the screen in sunlight and is there a differnce between the 810 and the 800?
